Willem de Bruijn 4ec0d8dbd7 net: tighten bad gso csum offset check in virtio_net_hdr
commit 6513eb3d3191574b58859ef2d6dc26c0277c6f81 upstream.

The referenced commit drops bad input, but has false positives.
Tighten the check to avoid these.

The check detects illegal checksum offload requests, which produce
csum_start/csum_off beyond end of packet after segmentation.

But it is based on two incorrect assumptions:

1. virtio_net_hdr_to_skb with VIRTIO_NET_HDR_GSO_TCP[46] implies GSO.
True in callers that inject into the tx path, such as tap.
But false in callers that inject into rx, like virtio-net.
Here, the flags indicate GRO, and CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY or
CHECKSUM_NONE without VIRTIO_NET_HDR_F_NEEDS_CSUM is normal.

2. TSO requires checksum offload, i.e., ip_summed == CHECKSUM_PARTIAL.
False, as tcp[46]_gso_segment will fix up csum_start and offset for
all other ip_summed by calling __tcp_v4_send_check.

Because of 2, we can limit the scope of the fix to virtio_net_hdr
that do try to set these fields, with a bogus value.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
