Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ppp_synctty: ensure a writeable skb header ppp_sync_txmunge() checks headroom before prepending the address and control bytes, but does not ensure that the skb header is writable. A received skb can reach this function through PPP channel bridging without passing through ppp_start_xmit(), which calls skb_cow_head(). For example, a PPPoE frame may share its buffer with a clone queued to an AF_PACKET socket. If it is bridged to a synchronous tty channel, the address/control bytes can overwrite data still visible to that socket. Use skb_cow_head() to ensure both sufficient headroom and a writable header.
