Title
net: packet: fix wrong transport_header when sending VLAN-tagged frame
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: packet: fix wrong transport_header when sending VLAN-tagged frame In packet_parse_headers(), when processing a VLAN-tagged frame, skb_set_network_header() is called to advance network_header past the VLAN tag to the inner protocol header. skb_probe_transport_header() is then called with skb->protocol still set to the outer VLAN EtherType (e.g. ETH_P_8021Q), while nhoff (derived from skb_network_offset()) already points past the VLAN tag to the inner protocol header. In __skb_flow_dissect(), proto is initialized to ETH_P_8021Q and nhoff points past the VLAN tag. When the dissector hits case ETH_P_8021Q, it reads a struct vlan_hdr at nhoff via __skb_header_pointer(), but that offset contains the inner protocol header (e.g. an IP header). The bytes are misinterpreted as a VLAN header, yielding a garbage encapsulated EtherType that matches no known protocol. The dissector returns false, so skb_probe_transport_header() never calls skb_set_transport_header(), leaving transport_header at its uninitialized sentinel value (~0U). Move skb_probe_transport_header() to before skb_set_network_header(). At the time skb_probe_transport_header() is called, network_header still points to the VLAN header, so nhoff correctly points to the VLAN header. The flow dissector can then parse the VLAN header, extract the inner EtherType, and advance nhoff to the inner protocol header, allowing transport_header to be set correctly.

When the dissector hits case ETH_P_8021Q, it\nreads a struct vlan_hdr at nhoff via __skb_header_pointer(), but that\noffset contains the inner protocol header (e.g. an IP header). The bytes\nare misinterpreted as a VLAN header, yielding a garbage encapsulated\nEtherType that matches no known protocol. The dissector returns false,\nso skb_probe_transport_header() never calls skb_set_transport_header(),\nleaving transport_header at its uninitialized sentinel value (~0U).\n\nMove skb_probe_transport_header() to before skb_set_network_header(). At\nthe time skb_probe_transport_header() is called, network_header still\npoints to the VLAN header, so nhoff correctly points to the VLAN header.\nThe flow dissector can then parse the VLAN header, extract the inner\nEtherType, and advance nhoff to the inner protocol header, allowing\ntransport_header to be set correctly."

When the dissector hits case ETH_P_8021Q, it\nreads a struct vlan_hdr at nhoff via __skb_header_pointer(), but that\noffset contains the inner protocol header (e.g. an IP header). The bytes\nare misinterpreted as a VLAN header, yielding a garbage encapsulated\nEtherType that matches no known protocol. The dissector returns false,\nso skb_probe_transport_header() never calls skb_set_transport_header(),\nleaving transport_header at its uninitialized sentinel value (~0U).\n\nMove skb_probe_transport_header() to before skb_set_network_header(). At\nthe time skb_probe_transport_header() is called, network_header still\npoints to the VLAN header, so nhoff correctly points to the VLAN header.\nThe flow dissector can then parse the VLAN header, extract the inner\nEtherType, and advance nhoff to the inner protocol header, allowing\ntransport_header to be set correctly."

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.

Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.

Nomenclature

  • Seen: The vulnerability was mentioned, discussed, or observed by the user.
  • Confirmed: The vulnerability has been validated from an analyst's perspective.
  • Published Proof of Concept: A public proof of concept is available for this vulnerability.
  • Exploited: The vulnerability was observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Patched: The vulnerability was observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Not exploited: The vulnerability was not observed as exploited by the user who reported the sighting.
  • Not confirmed: The user expressed doubt about the validity of the vulnerability.
  • Not patched: The vulnerability was not observed as successfully patched by the user who reported the sighting.

How durations are calculated

Following the VTEM framework (Black Hat USA 2015), time to patch starts when the vendor or a coordinator was informed, total time to patch at discovery, and disclosure to patch at public disclosure; vendor response time runs from the report to its acknowledgement. Time to exploit and time unpatched start at the earliest discovery or report, falling back to public disclosure. Unpatched time ends at the first recorded patch, or the calculation time when no patch is recorded. Exploitation to patch shows the interval between those two events; a published proof of concept is a public exploit, not exploitation.

Each result shows its source dates. A negative interval means the end event came first; when date-only inputs leave the order open, the result says so. Date-only inputs are approximate. The earliest evidence wins: KEV report dates and sightings are labelled as such. Records describing another vulnerability are listed but never calculated from, and a PoC alone does not establish exploitation. Missing patch evidence does not prove that no patch exists. Filters below change the event list only.
