Subject: [PATCH v3 5/8] ip_frag: reject oversized reassembled datagrams
Date: Wed,  1 Jul 2026 09:20:30 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260701162127.207318-6-stephen@networkplumber.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260701162127.207318-1-stephen@networkplumber.org>

The reassembled total length of a packet must not exceed 65535.
A fragment with a high offset could drive the sum past that,
causing silent truncation since IP payload_len/total_length is 16 bits.

When reassembling a packet the total length should not be allowed
to exceed 65535. A fragment with high offset could drive the sum
past that, causing silent truncation.

A valid datagram never exceeds 65535 bytes, so reject any fragment
whose resulting length would exceed that.
Fold the test into the existing zero-length check.
