Subject: [PATCH net-next v4 1/2] net: hsr: require valid EOT supervision TLV
Date: Wed,  1 Apr 2026 11:23:22 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260401092324.52266-2-luka.gejak@linux.dev> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260401092324.52266-1-luka.gejak@linux.dev>

From: Luka Gejak <luka.gejak@linux.dev>

Supervision frames are only valid if terminated with a zero-length EOT
TLV. The current check fails to reject non-EOT entries as the terminal
TLV, potentially allowing malformed supervision traffic.

Fix this by strictly requiring the terminal TLV to be HSR_TLV_EOT
with a length of zero.
