CVE-2026-81002CVE-2026-81002
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
xdp: fix zero-copy frame layout
xdp_convert_zc_to_xdp_frame() clones an XSK packet into an order-0 page
and advertises PAGE_SIZE as its frame size. It allows the copied frame
to occupy the page tail needed by skb_shared_info and records zero
headroom even when metadata separates the frame header from packet data.
An AF_XDP zero-copy packet redirected through cpumap can therefore make
the skb overlap skb_shared_info or place it beyond the allocated page.
Limit the copied layout to SKB_WITH_OVERHEAD(PAGE_SIZE) and include the
metadata length in frame headroom. Redirect callers already handle a
NULL conversion result.
