In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: lan966x: restore RX state on reload failure
lan966x_fdma_reload() backs up rx->page_pool and rx->fdma before
reallocating the RX resources for the new MTU. If the allocation fails,
the restore path puts these fields back before restarting RX.
However, the reload path also updates rx->page_order and rx->max_mtu
before calling lan966x_fdma_rx_alloc(). These fields are not restored on
failure, so RX can be restarted with the old pages, old FDMA state and
old page pool, but with the page geometry from the failed new MTU.
This can make the XDP path advertise a frame size derived from the new
page_order while the actual RX pages still come from the old allocation.
For example, after a failed reload to a jumbo MTU, xdp_init_buff() may be
called with a frame size larger than the restored RX pages.
lan966x_fdma_rx_alloc_page_pool() also registers the newly allocated page
pool with each port's XDP RXQ before fdma_alloc_coherent() is called. If
fdma_alloc_coherent() fails, the new page pool is destroyed, but the
rollback path does not restore the per-port XDP RXQ mem model
registration either.
Save and restore rx->page_order and rx->max_mtu, and restore the old page
pool registration for each port's XDP RXQ before RX is started again.
This keeps the restored RX state consistent after a failed reload.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's LAN966x network driver. When an attempt to reconfigure the Maximum Transmission Unit (MTU) fails, the driver does not properly restore its receive buffer settings. This inconsistency causes subsequent packet processing routines to assume larger buffer sizes than those actually allocated, leading to out-of-bounds memory access. A privileged local user could trigger this flaw to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) via a system crash.
