4Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tunnels: fix kasan splat when generating ipv4 pmtu error If we try to emit an icmp error in response to a nonliner skb, we get BUG: KASAN: slab-out-of-bounds in ip_compute_csum+0x134/0x220 Read of size 4 at addr ffff88811c50db00 by task iperf3/1691 CPU: 2 PID: 1691 Comm: iperf3 Not tainted 6.5.0-rc3+ #309 [..] kasan_report+0x105/0x140 ip_compute_csum+0x134/0x220 iptunnel_pmtud_build_icmp+0x554/0x1020 skb_tunnel_check_pmtu+0x513/0xb80 vxlan_xmit_one+0x139e/0x2ef0 vxlan_xmit+0x1867/0x2760 dev_hard_start_xmit+0x1ee/0x4f0 br_dev_queue_push_xmit+0x4d1/0x660 [..] ip_compute_csum() cannot deal with nonlinear skbs, so avoid it. After this change, splat is gone and iperf3 is no longer stuck.

Technical Context
An out-of-bounds memory access occurs when code reads from or writes to memory locations outside the intended buffer boundaries. This vulnerability is classified as Out-of-bounds Read (CWE-125).
Affected Products
Affected products: Linux Linux Kernel
Remediation
A vendor patch is available — apply it immediately. Implement proper bounds checking on all array and buffer accesses. Use memory-safe languages or static analysis tools to detect OOB issues.
