From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> stable inclusion from stable-v6.6.121 commit 029935507d0af6553c45380fbf6feecf756fd226 category: bugfix bugzilla: https://atomgit.com/src-openeuler/kernel/issues/13525 Reference: https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git/commit/?id=... -------------------------------- [ Upstream commit c92510f5e3f82ba11c95991824a41e59a9c5ed81 ] arp_create() is the only dev_hard_header() caller making assumption about skb->head being unchanged. A recent commit broke this assumption. Initialize @arp pointer after dev_hard_header() call. Fixes: db5b4e39c4e6 ("ip6_gre: make ip6gre_header() robust") Reported-by: syzbot+58b44a770a1585795351@syzkaller.appspotmail.com Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com> Link: https://patch.msgid.link/20260107212250.384552-1-edumazet@google.com Signed-off-by: Jakub Kicinski <kuba@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Sasha Levin <sashal@kernel.org> Signed-off-by: Dong Chenchen <dongchenchen2@huawei.com> --- net/ipv4/arp.c | 7 ++++--- 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+), 3 deletions(-) diff --git a/net/ipv4/arp.c b/net/ipv4/arp.c index 784dc8b37be5..4ea5987e06b6 100644 --- a/net/ipv4/arp.c +++ b/net/ipv4/arp.c @@ -563,7 +563,7 @@ struct sk_buff *arp_create(int type, int ptype, __be32 dest_ip, skb_reserve(skb, hlen); skb_reset_network_header(skb); - arp = skb_put(skb, arp_hdr_len(dev)); + skb_put(skb, arp_hdr_len(dev)); skb->dev = dev; skb->protocol = htons(ETH_P_ARP); if (!src_hw) @@ -571,12 +571,13 @@ struct sk_buff *arp_create(int type, int ptype, __be32 dest_ip, if (!dest_hw) dest_hw = dev->broadcast; - /* - * Fill the device header for the ARP frame + /* Fill the device header for the ARP frame. + * Note: skb->head can be changed. */ if (dev_hard_header(skb, dev, ptype, dest_hw, src_hw, skb->len) < 0) goto out; + arp = arp_hdr(skb); /* * Fill out the arp protocol part. * -- 2.25.1
