[PATCH 3.19.y-ckt 044/128] ipvlan: fix use after free of skb

From: Kamal Mostafa
Date: Wed Dec 16 2015 - 13:15:11 EST


3.19.8-ckt12 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Sabrina Dubroca <sd@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

commit a534dc529853c69e94994aa47c1d80a03ce2c11d upstream.

ipvlan_handle_frame is a rx_handler, and when it returns a value other
than RX_HANDLER_CONSUMED (here, NET_RX_DROP aka RX_HANDLER_ANOTHER),
__netif_receive_skb_core expects that the skb still exists and will
process it further, but we just freed it.

Fixes: 2ad7bf363841 ("ipvlan: Initial check-in of the IPVLAN driver.")
