| Subject: CVE-2024-35857: icmp: prevent possible NULL dereferences from icmp_build_probe() |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| icmp: prevent possible NULL dereferences from icmp_build_probe() |
| |
| First problem is a double call to __in_dev_get_rcu(), because |
| the second one could return NULL. |
| |
| if (__in_dev_get_rcu(dev) && __in_dev_get_rcu(dev)->ifa_list) |
| |
| Second problem is a read from dev->ip6_ptr with no NULL check: |
| |
| if (!list_empty(&rcu_dereference(dev->ip6_ptr)->addr_list)) |
| |
| Use the correct RCU API to fix these. |
| |
| v2: add missing include <net/addrconf.h> |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-35857 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
