What to Know

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: mvpp2: sync RX data at the hardware packet offset

mvpp2 programs the RX queue packet offset, so hardware writes received

data at dma_addr + MVPP2_SKB_HEADROOM. The current CPU sync starts at

dma_addr and only covers rx_bytes + MVPP2_MH_SIZE bytes, which syncs the

unused headroom and misses the same number of bytes at the packet tail.

On non-coherent DMA systems this can leave the CPU reading stale cache

contents for the end of the received frame.

Use dma_sync_single_range_for_cpu() with MVPP2_SKB_HEADROOM as the range

offset so the sync covers the Marvell header and packet data actually

written by hardware. (NVD)

What to Do

Monitor Linux's web page for any future patch releases.
