NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream perf package and not the perf package as distributed by AlmaLinux.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net/sched: cls_u32: use skb_header_pointer_careful()

skb_header_pointer() does not fully validate negative @offset values.

Use skb_header_pointer_careful() instead.
