"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet/sched: bound qdisc_pkt_len to prevent qdisc soft lockup\n\nqdisc_get_stab() accepts a user-supplied size table, and\n__qdisc_calculate_pkt_len() amplifies qdisc_pkt_len() through the\noverhead, the size-table data (u16), and size_log (up to\nSTAB_SIZE_LOG_MAX). A crafted stab can therefore set qdisc_pkt_len()\nto ~1 GiB for an ordinary skb. Per-flow deficit schedulers such as\nDRR and ETS replenish one quantum per loop iteration; with a tiny\nquantum (1) they spin billions of times under the qdisc lock,\nproducing a soft lockup / RCU stall as illustrated by vega@nebusec.ai.\n\nCap the final qdisc_pkt_len() to QDISC_PKT_LEN_MAX so the size-table\namplification cannot drive deficit schedulers into an unbounded loop.\nA legitimate size table (e.g. qfq's overhead 999999999, which is\nhandled by dropping) is still accepted.\n\nIntroduce cap QDISC_PKT_LEN_MAX (1 << 20) = 1 MiB which is well above\nany legitimate single-skb wire length: the largest current skb->len\nis GSO_MAX_SIZE (524280), and an ATM-style size table (53/48 cell tax)\namplifies that to ~578 KB, both comfortably below 1 MiB. At the same\ntime, 1 MiB bounds the deficit refill loop to ~1M iterations per\npacket with quantum=1, which completes in a few milliseconds well\nunder the demonstrated softlockup threshold (~10^9 iterations).\n\nConditions to recreate the bug:\n- CONFIG_NET_SCHED=y, CONFIG_NET_SCH_DRR=y (or CONFIG_NET_SCH_ETS=y).\n- Attach a DRR (or ETS) root qdisc with a crafted TCA_STAB that\n amplifies qdisc_pkt_len to ~1 GiB (e.g. size_log=15, data=[32768]).\n- Add a class with a tiny quantum of 1 and send one small packet; the\n deficit loop spins billions of times under the qdisc lock and trips\n the softlockup detector (panic with kernel.softlockup_panic=1).\n- Reachable as root or from an unprivileged user in a fresh user+net\n namespace (unshare -Urn) with namespace-local CAP_NET_ADMIN."
