- net: libwx: properly reset Rx ring descriptor
- Details
-
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: libwx: properly reset Rx ring descriptor
When device reset is triggered by feature changes such as toggling Rx VLAN offload, wx->doreset() is called to reinitialize Rx rings. The hardware descriptor ring may retain stale values from previous sessions. And only set the length to 0 in rxdesc[0] would result in building malformed SKBs. Fix it to ensure a clean slate after device reset.
