Subject: [PATCH] net: atm: lec: add pre_send validation to avoid uninitialized
Author: dharanitharan725@gmail.com
#syz test
syzbot reported a KMSAN uninitialized-value crash caused by reading
fields from struct atmlec_msg before validating that the skb contains
enough linear data. A malformed short skb can cause lec_arp_update()
and other handlers to access uninitialized memory.
Add a pre_send() validator that ensures the message header and optional
TLVs are fully present. This prevents all lec message types from reading
beyond initialized skb data.
Fixes: 1da177e4c3f4 ("Linux-2.6.12-rc2")
Reported-by: syzbot+5dd615f890ddada54057@syzkaller.appspotmail.com
Closes: https://syzkaller.appspot.com/bug?extid=5dd615f890ddada54057
