The attribute TCA_PEDIT_PARMS_EX is not be included in pedit_policy and
one malicious user could fake a TCA_PEDIT_PARMS_EX whose length is
smaller than the intended sizeof(struct tc_pedit). Hence, the
dereference in tcf_pedit_init() could access dirty heap data.
static int tcf_pedit_init(...)
{
// ...
pattr = tb[TCA_PEDIT_PARMS]; // TCA_PEDIT_PARMS is included
if (!pattr)
pattr = tb[TCA_PEDIT_PARMS_EX]; // but this is not
// ...
parm = nla_data(pattr);
index = parm->index; // parm is able to be smaller than 4 bytes
// and this dereference gets dirty skb_buff
// data created in netlink_sendmsg
}
This commit adds TCA_PEDIT_PARMS_EX length in pedit_policy which avoid
the above case, just like the TCA_PEDIT_PARMS.

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.
