      "title": "vlan: fix skb_under_panic and races when toggling HW VLAN offload",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nvlan: fix skb_under_panic and races when toggling HW VLAN offload\n\nToggling hardware VLAN TX offload (NETIF_F_HW_VLAN_CTAG_TX or\nNETIF_F_HW_VLAN_STAG_TX) on a lower device invokes vlan_transfer_features(),\nwhich dynamically changed vlandev->hard_header_len.\n\nThis causes two issues:\n1. Lockless TX paths (e.g. packet_snd in af_packet.c, ip6_finish_output2)\n   read dev->hard_header_len without holding RTNL lock. Mutating\n   hard_header_len dynamically under RTNL creates a data race where upper\n   layers reserve insufficient headroom based on a stale hard_header_len,\n   resulting in skb_under_panic when vlan_dev_hard_header() is called.\n2. In addition, vlan_transfer_features() updated hard_header_len without\n   updating header_ops, causing a mismatch between allocated headroom\n   and header creation.\n\nAlways setting dev->hard_header_len = real_dev->hard_header_len and\ndev->needed_headroom = real_dev->needed_headroom + VLAN_HLEN unconditionally\nensures:\n- dev->hard_header_len remains 100% static and immutable at real_dev->hard_header_len,\n  eliminating all dynamic runtime updates and data races on hard_header_len.\n- Upper layers allocating skbs via LL_RESERVED_SPACE() will always reserve\n  sufficient headroom for software VLAN tag insertion (real_dev->hard_header_len +\n  real_dev->needed_headroom + VLAN_HLEN).\n- vlandev inherits real_dev->needed_tailroom so underlying trailer/padding/ICV\n  requirements are honored.\n- AF_PACKET SOCK_RAW network header offsets remain correctly aligned at\n  real_dev->hard_header_len.\n- vlan_header_ops is used unconditionally.\n\nNote to stable teams: Make sure to backport these commits:\n\ne16e960d55a4 (\"ipvlan: inherit needed_headroom and needed_tailroom from phy_dev\")\ncef51860becd (\"macvlan: inherit needed_headroom and needed_tailroom from lowerdev\")",
