CVE: CVE-2021-47606
Published: 2024-06-19
Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: netlink: af_netlink: Prevent empty skb by adding a check on len.

Adding a check on len parameter to avoid empty skb. This prevents a
division error in netem_enqueue function which is caused when skb->len=0
and skb->data_len=0 in the randomized corruption step as shown below.

skb->data[prandom_u32() % skb_headlen(skb)] ^= 1<<(prandom_u32() % 8);
