Message-ID: <217a7790c9e74d9b89150f08fe68dbfd@huawei.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260616210656.464062-6-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.
