      <title>CVE-2022-49776 — macvlan: enforce a consistent minimal mtu</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2022-49776</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;macvlan: enforce a consistent minimal mtu&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;macvlan should enforce a minimal mtu of 68, even at link creation.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This patch avoids the current behavior (which could lead to crashes
in ipv6 stack if the link is brought up)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;$ ip link add macvlan1 link eno1 mtu 8 type macvlan  # This should fail !
$ ip link sh dev macvlan1
5: macvlan1@eno1: &amp;lt;BROADCAST,MULTICAST&amp;gt; mtu 8 qdisc noop
    state DOWN mode DEFAULT group default qlen 1000
    link/ether 02:47:6c:24:74:82 brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
$ ip link set macvlan1 mtu 67
Error: mtu less than device minimum.
$ ip link set macvlan1 mtu 68
$ ip link set macvlan1 mtu 8
Error: mtu less than device minimum.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
