      "title": "net: gro: properly validate BIG TCP aggregation criteria",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: gro: properly validate BIG TCP aggregation criteria\n\nWhen GRO attempts to aggregate packets beyond GRO_LEGACY_MAX_SIZE (64KB),\nBIG TCP should only be permitted for plain IPv4 TCP and plain IPv6 TCP\n(with sufficient MAC header room to insert the temporary HBH jumbo header).\n\nHowever, commit b1a78b9b9886 (\"net: add support for ipv4 big tcp\")\nloosened the check in skb_gro_receive(), leading to several issues:\n\n1. skb_gro_receive() checked skb_headroom(p) instead of the actual space\n   before the MAC header (p->mac_header). Because skb_headroom(p) includes\n   mac_len, crafted frames (e.g. injected via AF_PACKET) can pass the check\n   with p->mac_header < 8 bytes. When ipv6_gro_complete() inserts the\n   temporary HBH jumbo header, the memmove() starts before skb->head,\n   causing an out-of-bounds write and wrapping skb->mac_header.\n2. It allowed non-IP protocols such as software VLAN (ETH_P_8021Q /\n   ETH_P_8021AD) to aggregate beyond 64KB because\n   p->protocol != ETH_P_IPV6 was true.\n3. It checked p->encapsulation instead of NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->encap_mark,\n   allowing encapsulated flows (e.g. SIT / IPv6-in-IPv4) to aggregate\n   beyond 64KB.\n\nFix skb_gro_receive() to strictly enforce:\n- NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->proto == IPPROTO_TCP\n- Not encapsulated (!NAPI_GRO_CB(skb)->encap_mark && !p->encapsulation)\n- Protocol must be either ETH_P_IP or ETH_P_IPV6\n- If ETH_P_IPV6, p->mac_header must be at least\n  sizeof(struct hop_jumbo_hdr)\n\nReturning -E2BIG from skb_gro_receive() ensures that packets which cannot\nbecome BIG TCP are cleanly flushed at <= 64KB and delivered intact without\ndropping.\n\nThis issue does not exist in mainline (7.0+) because the subsystem was\nrewritten in commit 81be30c1f5f2 (\"net/ipv6: Drop HBH for BIG TCP on RX\nside\"), making this fix relevant only for older stable branches like\n6.18.y.",
