In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ipv4: Fix UDP length overflow with PMTU discover and big MTU
This commit bounds cork->base.fragsize to IP_MAX_MTU to avoid a
possible overflow of UDP length that triggers a WARN in
udp_set_len_short when setsockopt IP_MTU_DISCOVER is set to
IP_PMTUDISC_PROBE, and a large packet is sent over a netdev with an
unusually large MTU.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Set device MTU bigger than IP_MAX_MTU + 20. cork->base.fragsize will
be set to that MTU in ip_setup_cork.
2. Set IP_MTU_DISCOVER to IP_PMTUDISC_PROBE. It lets maxnonfragsize be
set to device MTU (cork->fragsize) in __ip_append_data, rather than
to IP_MAX_MTU.
3. Send 65528 bytes of payload (+8 bytes of UDP header, +20 bytes of
IPv4 header). Device MTU allows it (it's only one byte bigger than
IP_MAX_MTU + IPv4 header, and the device MTU is bigger than that).
4. The UDP length in the built packet is 65536, which overflows the
16-bit length field and triggers the WARN in udp_set_len_short.
Note: IP_PMTUDISC_DO with IPv4 is safe, because ip_dst_mtu_maybe_forward
always clamps at IP_MAX_MTU, unlike ip6_dst_mtu_maybe_forward.
The Fixes tag points at the first commit where I could reproduce the
overflow with IPv4 and IP_PMTUDISC_PROBE.
