In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/packet: clear RX owner on VNET header error
Commit 61fad6816fc1 ("net/packet: tpacket_rcv: avoid a producer race
condition") added rx_owner_map and made tpacket_rcv() claim a V1 or V2
ring slot before converting the virtio-net header. If the conversion
fails, the drop path leaves the slot claimed.
With a one-frame TPACKET_V2 ring, an unsupported UDP GSO packet leaves
the only slot unavailable, so the ring also drops the next valid packet.
Clear the ownership bit on this error path. TPACKET_V3 already clears
its block state here.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's packet socket implementation. An attacker could cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by transmitting network packets that fail virtual network header processing. When processing encounters an error, the kernel fails to clear the ownership status of the assigned receive ring buffer slot. This leaves buffer slots permanently unavailable, preventing legitimate packets from being received and leading to dropped network traffic.
