Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ax25: properly unshare skbs in ax25_kiss_rcv()
Bernard Pidoux reported a regression apparently caused by commit
c353e8983e0d ("net: introduce per netns packet chains").
skb->dev becomes NULL and we crash in __netif_receive_skb_core().
Before above commit, different kind of bugs or corruptions could happen
without a major crash.
But the root cause is that ax25_kiss_rcv() can queue/mangle input skb
without checking if this skb is shared or not.
Many thanks to Bernard Pidoux for his help, diagnosis and tests.
We had a similar issue years ago fixed with commit 7aaed57c5c28
("phonet: properly unshare skbs in phonet_rcv()").
