How to fix?

Upgrade SLES:15.4 kernel-source to version 5.14.21-150400.24.240.1 or higher.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-source package and not the kernel-source package as distributed by SLES. See How to fix? for SLES:15.4 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

tunnels: do not assume transport header in iptunnel_pmtud_check_icmp()

In some cases, iptunnel_pmtud_check_icmp() can be called while skb transport header is not set.

This triggers an out-of-bound access, because (typeof(skb->transport_header))~0U is 65535.

Access the icmp header based on IPv4 network header, after making sure icmp->type is present in skb linear part.

Note that iptunnel_pmtud_check_icmpv6()) is fine.
