It seems for me the similar problem can happen in __skb_trim_rcsum(). Also I doubt that that skb_checksum_start_offset(skb) checks in __skb_postpull_rcsum() and skb_csum_unnecessary() are correct, becasue they do not guarantee that skb have correct CHECKSUM_PARTIAL. Could somebody confirm it?I've rechecked the code and I think now that other places are not affected, i.e. skb_push_rcsum() only should be patched.Thanks for investigating this. So tun was able to insert a packet with csum_start + csum_off + 2 beyond the packet after trimming, using virtio_net_hdr.csum_... Any packet with an offset beyond the end of the packet is bogus really. No need to try to accept it by downgrading to CHECKSUM_NONE.
Do you mean it's better to force pskb_trim_rcsum() to return -EINVAL instead? Thank you, Vasily Averin
