In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: cfg80211: check IP header size in cfg80211_classify8021d()
A frame that looks like IP can be transmitted, but be too short, so the DS field is read incorrectly:
BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in cfg80211_classify8021d+0x99d/0x12b0 net/wireless/util.c:1027 cfg80211_classify8021d+0x99d/0x12b0 net/wireless/util.c:1027 ieee80211_select_queue+0x37a/0x9e0 net/mac80211/wme.c:180 __ieee80211_subif_start_xmit+0x60f/0x1d90 net/mac80211/tx.c:4304 ieee80211_subif_start_xmit+0xa8/0x6d0 net/mac80211/tx.c:4538 ... packet_sendmsg+0x9173/0xa2a0 net/packet/af_packet.c:3108
Use skb_header_pointer() like the MPLS case.
