In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: ipv4: bound TCP reordering sysctl writes and MTU probe sizes Reject invalid net.ipv4.tcp_reordering values before they reach TCP socket state. The sysctl is stored as an int but copied into the u32 tp->reordering field for new sockets, so negative writes wrap to large values. With tcp_mtu_probing=2, the wrapped value can overflow the tcp_mtu_probe() size calculation and drive the MTU probing path into an out-of-bounds read. Route tcp_reordering writes through proc_dointvec_minmax() and require it to be at least 1. Also require tcp_max_reordering to be at least 1 so the configured maximum cannot become negative either. When registering the table for a non-init network namespace, relocate extra2 pointers that refer into init_net.ipv4 so the tcp_reordering upper bound follows that namespace's tcp_max_reordering. Harden tcp_mtu_probe() itself by computing size_needed as u64. This keeps the send queue and window checks from being bypassed through signed integer overflow.
