Subject: [PATCH] flow_dissector: fix uninit-value in __skb_flow_dissect() for ETH_ADDRS
Date: Wed, 3 Jun 2026 11:08:10 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260603030810.3593625-1-yun.zhou@windriver.com> (raw)

When dissecting FLOW_DISSECTOR_KEY_ETH_ADDRS, the code unconditionally
copies sizeof(flow_dissector_key_eth_addrs) (12 bytes) from eth_hdr(skb).
However, if the packet is too short (e.g., a 1-byte packet sent via
AF_PACKET on a TUN device), eth_hdr(skb) points to uninitialized skb
memory beyond the actual packet data.

This causes KMSAN to report uninit-value in __fl_lookup() when the
uninitialized eth addresses are used as rhashtable lookup key in
cls_flower.

Fix by checking that sufficient data exists from mac_header to skb tail
before copying. If not enough data, zero the key to ensure deterministic
behavior (no false matches).
