In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: skbuff: propagate shared-frag marker in skb_zerocopy() skb_zerocopy() moves frag descriptors from @from into @to and takes a reference on each frag, but it does not copy skb_shinfo(from)->flags into skb_shinfo(to)->flags. A destination skb holding the same page-cache backed frags as the source therefore reports skb_has_shared_frag() as false. That breaks the invariant relied on by later in-place writers. ESP input checks skb_has_shared_frag() before deciding whether an uncloned nonlinear skb can skip skb_cow_data(); with the marker lost, an skb that skb_zerocopy() built for nfnetlink_queue or for an openvswitch upcall i
