NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-uek-debug-modules-deprecated package and not the kernel-uek-debug-modules-deprecated package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

wifi: mac80211_hwsim: clamp virtio RX length before skb_put

hwsim_virtio_rx_work() passes the virtqueue used-ring length reported by the device straight to skb_put() on a fixed-size receive skb. A backend reporting a length larger than the skb tailroom drives skb_put() past the buffer end and hits skb_over_panic() -- a host-triggerable guest panic (denial of service).

Clamp the length to the skb's available room before skb_put(). A conforming device never reports more than the posted buffer size, so valid frames are unaffected; a truncated over-report then fails the length/header checks in hwsim_virtio_handle_cmd() and is dropped, so truncating rather than dropping here cannot be turned into a parsing problem.
