In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
netfilter: nfttunnel: fix geneveopt type confusion addition
When handling multiple NFTATUNNELKEYOPTSGENEVE attributes, the parsing logic should place every geneveopt structure one by one compactly. Hence, when deciding the next geneveopt position, the pointer addition should be in units of char *.
However, the current implementation erroneously does type conversion before the addition, which will lead to heap out-of-bounds write.
