Balazs Nemeth 924a9bc362 net: check if protocol extracted by virtio_net_hdr_set_proto is correct 
For gso packets, virtio_net_hdr_set_proto sets the protocol (if it isn't
set) based on the type in the virtio net hdr, but the skb could contain
anything since it could come from packet_snd through a raw socket. If
there is a mismatch between what virtio_net_hdr_set_proto sets and
the actual protocol, then the skb could be handled incorrectly later
on.

An example where this poses an issue is with the subsequent call to
skb_flow_dissect_flow_keys_basic which relies on skb->protocol being set
correctly. A specially crafted packet could fool
skb_flow_dissect_flow_keys_basic preventing EINVAL to be returned.

Avoid blindly trusting the information provided by the virtio net header
by checking that the protocol in the packet actually matches the
protocol set by virtio_net_hdr_set_proto. Note that since the protocol
is only checked if skb->dev implements header_ops->parse_protocol,
packets from devices without the implementation are not checked at this
stage.

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.
