About vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: amd-xgbe: Fix skb data length underflow
There will be BUG_ON() triggered in include/linux/skbuff.h leading to intermittent kernel panic, when the skb length underflow is detected.
Fix this by dropping the packet if such length underflows are seen because of inconsistencies in the hardware descriptors.
