Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.
在 Linux 内核中，以下漏洞已得到修复： net: stmmac: 修复 TSO 头部长度截断问题 将 返回的协议头部长度存储在一个 （无符号 8 位整数）类型变量中。而 允许的最大头部长度为 1023 字节，因此当头部长度超过 255 字节时，会发生对 256 取模的环绕错误（例如，486 变为 230，256 变为 0）。 当通过 IPv6 套接字传输 TCP 数据包，且携带数百字节的粘性目标选项或逐跳选项时， 计算出的头部长度会超过 255 字节但仍低于 1023 字节的限制，从而导致该 被送入 处理。

Vulnerability Title
net: stmmac: fix TSO header length truncation
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: stmmac: fix TSO header length truncation
stmmac_tso_xmit() stores the protocol header length returned by
stmmac_tso_header_size() in a u8. stmmac_tso_valid_packet() admits
headers up to 1023 bytes, so a header longer than 255 bytes wraps modulo
256 (486 becomes 230, 256 becomes 0).
A TCP over IPv6 socket carrying a few hundred bytes of sticky
destination/hop-by-hop options makes skb_tcp_all_headers() exceed 255
while staying below the 1023-byte limit, so such an skb reaches
stmmac_tso_xmit().
Widen proto_hdr_len to unsigned int, which is sufficient since the value
is bounded by the hardware limit, and adjust the debug print specifier
accordingly.
