A remote DoS vulnerability of RPL Source Routing is assigned CVE-2023-2156.
The Source Routing Header (SRH) has the following format:
0 1 2 3
0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 1
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| Next Header | Hdr Ext Len | Routing Type | Segments Left |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| CmprI | CmprE | Pad | Reserved |
+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
| |

. Addresses[1..n] .

+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
The originator of an SRH places the first hop's IPv6 address in the IPv6
header's IPv6 Destination Address and the second hop's IPv6 address as
the first address in Addresses[1..n].
The CmprI and CmprE fields indicate the number of prefix octets that are
shared with the IPv6 Destination Address. When CmprI or CmprE is not 0,
Addresses[1..n] are compressed as follows:
1..n-1 : (16 - CmprI) bytes
n : (16 - CmprE) bytes
Segments Left indicates the number of route segments remaining. When the
value is not zero, the SRH is forwarded to the next hop. Its address
is extracted from Addresses[n - Segment Left + 1] and swapped with IPv6
Destination Address.
When Segment Left is greater than or equal to 2, the size of SRH is not
changed because Addresses[1..n-1] are decompressed and recompressed with
CmprI.
OTOH, when Segment Left changes from 1 to 0, the new SRH could have a
different size because Addresses[1..n-1] are decompressed with CmprI and
recompressed with CmprE.
Let's say CmprI is 15 and CmprE is 0. When we receive SRH with Segment
Left >= 2, Addresses[1..n-1] have 1 byte for each, and Addresses[n] has
16 bytes. When Segment Left is 1, Addresses[1..n-1] is decompressed to
16 bytes and not recompressed. Finally, the new SRH will need more room
in the header, and the size is (16 - 1) * (n - 1) bytes.
Here the max value of n is 255 as Segment Left is u8, so in the worst case,
we have to allocate 3825 bytes in the skb headroom. However, now we only
allocate a small fixed buffer that is IPV6_RPL_SRH_WORST_SWAP_SIZE (16 + 7
bytes). If the decompressed size overflows the room, skb_push() hits BUG()
below [0].
Instead of allocating the fixed buffer for every packet, let's allocate
enough headroom only when we receive SRH with Segment Left 1.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
