Yinhao et al. recently reported: Our fuzzing tool was able to create a BPF program which triggered the below BUG condition inside pskb_expand_head. [ 23.016047][T10006] kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:2232! [...] [ 23.017301][T10006] RIP: 0010:pskb_expand_head+0x1519/0x1530 [...] [ 23.021249][T10006] Call Trace: [ 23.021387][T10006] [ 23.021507][T10006] ? __pfx_pskb_expand_head+0x10/0x10 [ 23.021725][T10006] __bpf_skb_change_head+0x22a/0x520 [ 23.021939][T10006] bpf_skb_change_head+0x34/0x1b0 [ 23.022143][T10006] ___bpf_prog_run+0xf70/0xb670 [ 23.022342][T10006] __bpf_prog_run32+0xed/0x140 [...] The problem is that in __bpf_skb_change_head() we need to reject a negative head_room as otherwise this propagates all the way to the pskb_expand_head() from skb_cow(). For example, if the BPF test infra passes a skb with gso_skb:1 to the BPF helper with a negative head_room of -22, then this gets passed into skb_cow(). __skb_cow() in this example calculates a delta of -86 which gets aligned to -64, and then triggers BUG_ON(nhead < 0). Thus, reject malformed negative input.
