Subject: [PATCH 1/3] openvswitch: Add length check when retrieving TCP flags.
Date: Mon, 7 May 2012 18:51:23 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1336441885-11085-2-git-send-email-jesse@nicira.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1336441885-11085-1-git-send-email-jesse-l0M0P4e3n4LQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org>
When collecting TCP flags we check that the IP header indicates that
a TCP header is present but not that the packet is actually long
enough to contain the header. This adds a check to prevent reading
off the end of the packet.
In practice, this is only likely to result in reading of bad data and
not a crash due to the presence of struct skb_shared_info at the end
of the packet.
