A protocol-bound SOCK_RAW socket,\nany SOCK_DGRAM frame, and the legacy SOCK_PACKET path therefore leave\nskb->mac_header unset here.\n\nFor frames sent via __dev_queue_xmit() this is harmless: it resets the\nMAC header unconditionally. But the packet-socket PACKET_QDISC_BYPASS\npath uses dev_direct_xmit(), which does not, so the frame reaches\nndo_start_xmit() with the MAC header unset. A driver that reads\neth_hdr(skb) on transmit then dereferences skb->head + (u16)~0, an\nout-of-bounds access ~64 KiB past the head -- the same class fixed for\none consumer in commit f5089008f90c (\"macsec: do not read an unset MAC\nheader in macsec_encrypt()\").\n\npacket_parse_headers() runs only on the transmit path, where skb->data\npoints at the start of the L2 header for every packet-socket type\nregardless of its length: SOCK_RAW and SOCK_PACKET carry a user-supplied\nheader and SOCK_DGRAM has one built by dev_hard_header(). Reset the MAC\nheader unconditionally, mirroring __dev_queue_xmit(), so the frame is\nanchored on the bypass path too.\n\nFound by 0sec (https://0sec.ai) using automated source analysis;\nverified against source and matched to the macsec KASAN report in\nf5089008f90c.
