In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipvs: clear IPv4 options after rebasing tunnel ICMP errors
ip_vs_in_icmp() rebases an skb from the outer ICMP packet to the
quoted original request before passing it to icmp_send(). However,
IPCB(skb)->opt still describes the outer IPv4 header.
A timestamp option in the outer header can therefore leave an offset
that points into the quoted transport header after the rebase.
__ip_options_echo() treats a byte at that stale location as the option
length and copies it into the fixed-size option storage on the
__icmp_send() stack, causing a stack out-of-bounds write.
Clear the stale option metadata after resetting the network header.
Keep the remaining control block fields, including the ingress
interface used by the ICMP response path.
