Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ipv6: fix potential "struct net" leak in inet6_rtm_getaddr()

It seems that if userspace provides a correct IFA_TARGET_NETNSID value
but no IFA_ADDRESS and IFA_LOCAL attributes, inet6_rtm_getaddr()
returns -EINVAL with an elevated "struct net" refcount.

En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: ipv6: soluciona una posible fuga de "struct net" en inet6_rtm_getaddr() Parece que si el espacio de usuario proporciona un valor IFA_TARGET_NETNSID correcto pero no los atributos IFA_ADDRESS e IFA_LOCAL, inet6_rtm_getaddr() devuelve -EINVAL con un recuento elevado de "estructura neta".
