When prog extends the headroom it is suppose to write something in there. Extending the packet just to capture some garbage bytes from the previous packet is dumb, but doesn't compromise the safety of the kernel. There were proposals to ask the verifier to track that the headroom is actually initialized by the program, but it's pointless. Dumb prog can write garbage in there just as well. bpf_probe_read_kernel( from_random_addr) and store into the headroom.

The device allocates an skb, it additionally allocates a prepad size (usually equal to NET_SKB_PAD or XDP_PACKET_HEADROOM) but leaves it uninitialized. The bpf_xdp_adjust_head function moves skb->data forward, which allows users to access data belonging to other programs, posing a security risk.
