This handles both linear and non-linear skbs,\nproperly initializes the iov_iter, and removes the now unused\nvirtio_transport_copy_nonlinear_skb().\n\nWhile touching this code, let's also check the return value of\nskb_copy_datagram_iter(), even though it's unlikely to fail." } ], "affected": [ { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "unaffected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "net/vmw_vsock/virtio_transport_common.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "4b0bf10eb077cb43c09746251ef3608d62c45667", "lessThan": "06747f52ab157591cec7e5623a759473b66ef6f6", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "4b0bf10eb077cb43c09746251ef3608d62c45667", "lessThan": "52da6a74ca3de0fcda60301096b71534b3b18641", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "4b0bf10eb077cb43c09746251ef3608d62c45667", "lessThan": "378b131a25bd1a5ee27ca199fe486c299d5350c5", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" }, { "version": "4b0bf10eb077cb43c09746251ef3608d62c45667", "lessThan": "3a3e3d90cbc79600544536723911657730759af3", "status": "affected", "versionType": "git" } ] }, { "product": "Linux", "vendor": "Linux", "defaultStatus": "affected", "repo": "https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git", "programFiles": [ "net/vmw_vsock/virtio_transport_common.c" ], "versions": [ { "version": "6.7", "status": "affected" }, { "version": "0", "lessThan": "6.7", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.12.90", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.12.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "6.18.32", "lessThanOrEqual": "6.18.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.0.9", "lessThanOrEqual": "7.0.*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "semver" }, { "version": "7.1", "lessThanOrEqual": "*", "status": "unaffected", "versionType": "original_commit_for_fix" } ] } ], "cpeApplicability": [ { "nodes": [ { "operator": "OR", "negate": false, "cpeMatch": [ { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.7", "versionEndExcluding": "6.12.90" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.7", "versionEndExcluding": "6.18.32" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.7", "versionEndExcluding": "7.0.9" }, { "vulnerable": true, "criteria": "cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*", "versionStartIncluding": "6.7", "versionEndExcluding": "7.1" } ] } ] } ], "references": [ { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/06747f52ab157591cec7e5623a759473b66ef6f6" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/52da6a74ca3de0fcda60301096b71534b3b18641" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/378b131a25bd1a5ee27ca199fe486c299d5350c5" }, { "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3a3e3d90cbc79600544536723911657730759af3" } ], "title": "vsock/virtio: fix empty payload in tap skb for non-linear buffers", "x_generator": { "engine": "bippy-1.2.0" } } } }
