Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: add vlan_get_protocol_and_depth() helper
Before blamed commit, pskb_may_pull() was used instead
of skb_header_pointer() in __vlan_get_protocol() and friends.
Few callers depended on skb->head being populated with MAC header,
syzbot caught one of them (skb_mac_gso_segment())
Add vlan_get_protocol_and_depth() to make the intent clearer
and use it where sensible.
This is a more generic fix than commit e9d3f80935b6
("net/af_packet: make sure to pull mac header") which was
dealing with a similar issue.
