Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
batman-adv: avoid OGM aggregation when skb tailroom is insufficient
When OGM aggregation state is toggled at runtime, an existing forwarded packet may have been allocated with only packet_len bytes, while a later packet can still be selected for aggregation. Appending in this case can hit skb_put overflow conditions.
Reject aggregation when the target skb tailroom cannot accommodate the new packet. The caller then falls back to creating a new forward packet instead of appending.
