CVE-2026-74473

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

vxlan: use pskb_network_may_pull() in route_shortcircuit()

route_shortcircuit() currently calls pskb_may_pull(skb, sizeof(struct iphdr))

(or ipv6hdr), which checks if bytes are available starting from skb->data.

However, in vxlan_xmit(), skb->data points to the MAC header, so

skb_network_offset(skb) is ETH_HLEN (14 bytes). Using pskb_may_pull(skb, 20)

only checks 20 bytes from skb->data (which is 14 bytes MAC header + 6 bytes of

IP header), leaving the rest of the IP header potentially un-pulled in non-linear

frags. Subsequent dereferences of ip_hdr(skb)->daddr can read beyond the pulled

linear buffer length.

Fix this by using pskb_network_may_pull(), which adds skb_network_offset(skb) to

the length check to ensure the full network header is present in the linear buffer.
