Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: fix NULL pointer dereference in l3mdev_l3_rcv
When delete l3s ipvlan:
ip link del link eth0 ipvlan1 type ipvlan mode l3s
This may cause a null pointer dereference:
Call trace:
ip_rcv_finish+0x48/0xd0
ip_rcv+0x5c/0x100
__netif_receive_skb_one_core+0x64/0xb0

This is because l3mdev_l3_rcv() visit dev->l3mdev_ops after
ipvlan_l3s_unregister() assign the dev->l3mdev_ops to NULL. The process
like this:
(CPU1) | (CPU2)
l3mdev_l3_rcv() |
check dev->priv_flags: |
master = skb->dev; |
|
| ipvlan_l3s_unregister()
| set dev->priv_flags
| dev->l3mdev_ops = NULL;
