[PATCH 5.0 04/43] ipv4/route: fail early when inet dev is missing

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Mar 18 2019 - 05:28:11 EST


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

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

From: Paolo Abeni <pabeni@xxxxxxxxxx>

[ Upstream commit 22c74764aa2943ecdf9f07c900d8a9c8ba6c9265 ]

If a non local multicast packet reaches ip_route_input_rcu() while
the ingress device IPv4 private data (in_dev) is NULL, we end up
doing a NULL pointer dereference in IN_DEV_MFORWARD().

Since the later call to ip_route_input_mc() is going to fail if
!in_dev, we can fail early in such scenario and avoid the dangerous
code path.

v1 -> v2:
- clarified the commit message, no code changes
