The flow action buffer can be resized if it's not big enough to contain all the requested flow actions. However, this resize doesn't take into account the new requested size, the buffer is only increased by a factor of 2x. This might be not enough to contain the new data, causing a buffer overflow, for example: [ 42.044472] ============================================================================= [ 42.045608] BUG kmalloc-96 (Not tainted): Redzone overwritten [ 42.046415] ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- [ 42.047715] Disabling lock debugging due to kernel taint [ 42.047716] INFO: 0x8bf2c4a5-0x720c0928.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
