net: test for not too small csum_start in virtio_net_hdr_to_skb()
Summary
net: test for not too small csum_start in virtio_net_hdr_to_skb()
Original description
The description as published by the source.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: test for not too small csum_start in virtio_net_hdr_to_skb()
syzbot was able to trigger this warning [1], after injecting a
malicious packet through af_packet, setting skb->csum_start and thus
the transport header to an incorrect value.
We can at least make sure the transport header is after
the end of the network header (with a estimated minimal size).
