In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: hsr: must allocate more bytes for RedBox support
Blamed commit forgot to change hsr_init_skb() to allocate larger skb for RedBox case.
Indeed, send_hsr_supervision_frame() will add two additional components (struct hsr_sup_tlv and struct hsr_sup_payload)
