Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: Handle attempt to delete multipath route when fib_info contains an nh reference
Gwangun Jung reported a slab-out-of-bounds access in fib_nh_match:
fib_nh_match+0xf98/0x1130 linux-6.0-rc7/net/ipv4/fib_semantics.c:961
fib_table_delete+0x5f3/0xa40 linux-6.0-rc7/net/ipv4/fib_trie.c:1753
inet_rtm_delroute+0x2b3/0x380 linux-6.0-rc7/net/ipv4/fib_frontend.c:874
Separate nexthop objects are mutually exclusive with the legacy
multipath spec. Fix fib_nh_match to return if the config for the
to be deleted route contains a multipath spec while the fib_info
is using a nexthop object.
