UBUNTU-CVE-2024-49948: Medium severity ubuntu/linux vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: add more sanity checks to qdiscpktleninit() One path takes care of SKBGSODODGY, assuming skb->len is bigger than hdrlen. virtionethdrtoskb() does not fully dissect TCP headers, it only make sure it is at least 20 bytes. It is possible for an user to provide a malicious 'GSO' packet, total length of 80 bytes. - 20 bytes of IPv4 header - 60 bytes TCP header - a small gsosize like 8 virtionethdrtoskb() would declare this packet as a normal GSO packet, because it would see 40 bytes of payload, bigger than gsosize. We need to make detect this case to not underflow qdiscskbcb(skb)->pktlen.

Frequently Asked Questions
What level of access does an attacker need?
The attack vector is local and requires low privileges. An attacker must be able to provide a malformed GSO packet that passes the limited TCP-header validation path.
What is the expected security impact?
The provided severity vector indicates high availability impact, with no confidentiality or integrity impact. The flaw can underflow the packet-length value used by queueing discipline processing.
Which Ubuntu kernel package families should be assessed?
Assess ubuntu/linux, ubuntu/linux-fips, ubuntu/linux-aws, ubuntu/linux-azure, ubuntu/linux-gcp, and the AWS, Azure, and GCP FIPS kernel variants. The supplied data does not identify fixed or affected package versions.
