In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
veth: convert frag_list skbs before running XDP
A frag_list skb can reach veth with data_len set but nr_frags zero.
veth_convert_skb_to_xdp_buff() only converts skbs that are shared,
locked, have frags[], or do not have enough headroom. It later uses
skb_is_nonlinear() to decide whether to set XDP_FLAGS_HAS_FRAGS and
xdp_frags_size.
That exposes frag_list data to XDP as if it were stored in frags[], but
frags[] is empty. AF_XDP copy mode can then trust the bogus XDP fragment
metadata, walk an empty fragment entry, and crash in memcpy() from
__xsk_rcv().
Route non-linear skbs through skb_pp_cow_data() before exposing them to
XDP, and only advertise XDP frags when the resulting skb has frags[].
skb_copy_bits() already handles frag_list input, and skb_pp_cow_data()
builds frags[] output with skb_add_rx_frag(), which is the
representation XDP multi-buffer expects.
