openvswitch: validate MPLS set/set_masked payload length

Published: 4/25/2026 Last updated: 4/27/2026 Reserved: 3/9/2026

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: openvswitch: validate MPLS set/set_masked payload length validate_set() accepted OVS_KEY_ATTR_MPLS as variable-sized payload for SET/SET_MASKED actions. In action handling, OVS expects fixed-size MPLS key data (struct ovs_key_mpls). Use the already normalized key_len (masked case included) and reject non-matching MPLS action key sizes. Reject invalid MPLS action payload lengths early.
