| Impact: | Moderate | What is this? |
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bpf: sockmap: fix tail fragment offset in bpf_msg_push_data When bpf_msg_push_data() inserts data in the middle of a scatterlist entry, it splits the original entry into a left fragment and a right fragment. The right fragment offset is page-local, but the code advances it with `start`, which is the message-global insertion point. For inserts into a non-first SG entry, this over-advances the offset and leaves the split layout inconsistent. Advance the right fragment offset by the fragment-local delta, `start - offset`, which matches the length removed from the front of the original entry.
