| Subject: CVE-2025-21925: llc: do not use skb_get() before dev_queue_xmit() |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| llc: do not use skb_get() before dev_queue_xmit() |
| |
| syzbot is able to crash hosts [1], using llc and devices |
| not supporting IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING. |
| |
| In this case, e1000 driver calls eth_skb_pad(), while |
| the skb is shared. |
| |
| Simply replace skb_get() by skb_clone() in net/llc/llc_s_ac.c |
| |
| Note that e1000 driver might have an issue with pktgen, |
| because it does not clear IFF_TX_SKB_SHARING, this is an |
| orthogonal change. |
| |
| We need to audit other skb_get() uses in net/llc. |

| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
