{"id":"CVE-2023-53109","summary":"net: tunnels: annotate lockless accesses to dev-\u003eneeded_headroom","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: tunnels: annotate lockless accesses to dev-\u003eneeded_headroom\n\nIP tunnels can apparently update dev-\u003eneeded_headroom\nin their xmit path.\n\nThis patch takes care of three tunnels xmit, and also the\ncore LL_RESERVED_SPACE() and LL_RESERVED_SPACE_EXTRA()\nhelpers.\n\nMore changes might be needed for completeness.\n\nBUG: KCSAN: data-race in ip_tunnel_xmit / ip_tunnel_xmit\n\nread to
