CVE-2024-26882

CVE-2024-26882

Description

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

net: ip_tunnel: make sure to pull inner header in ip_tunnel_rcv()

Apply the same fix than ones found in :

8d975c15c0cd ("ip6_tunnel: make sure to pull inner header in __ip6_tnl_rcv()") 1ca1ba465e55 ("geneve: make sure to pull inner header in geneve_rx()")

We have to save skb->network_header in a temporary variable in order to be able to recompute the network_header pointer after a pskb_inet_may_pull() call.

pskb_inet_may_pull() makes sure the needed headers are in skb->head.
