Subject: [PATCH net v2 2/2] geneve: validate inner network offset in geneve_gro_complete()
Date: Mon, 8 Jun 2026 21:13:33 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260609041334.2506153-2-xmei5@asu.edu> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260609041334.2506153-1-xmei5@asu.edu>
Even with both paths gated on gs->gro_hint, geneve_gro_complete()
re-derives the inner dispatch type and length from the packet and the
current gs->gro_hint, independently of geneve_gro_receive(). The two can
disagree if gs->gro_hint flips under a concurrent geneve_quiesce()/
geneve_unquiesce() (sk_user_data is NULL across a synchronize_net()), or if
the re-read option bytes differ from the ones receive parsed.
geneve_gro_receive() already records the inner network header position in
NAPI_GRO_CB()->inner_network_offset. Have geneve_gro_complete() check the
offset it is about to dispatch at against that value, adding ETH_HLEN in
the ETH_P_TEB case where eth_gro_complete() steps over the inner MAC
header, and bail out on mismatch instead of trusting the re-derivation.
Fixes: fd0dd796576e ("geneve: use GRO hint option in the RX path")
