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

ipv6: fix race condition between ipv6getifaddr and ipv6deladdr

Although ipv6getifaddr walks inet6addrlst under the RCU lock, it still means hlistforeachentryrcu can return an item that got removed from the list. The memory itself of such item is not freed thanks to RCU but nothing guarantees the actual content of the memory is sane.

In particular, the reference count can be zero. This can happen if ipv6deladdr is called in parallel. ipv6deladdr removes the entry from inet6addrlst (hlistdelinitrcu(&ifp->addrlst)) and drops all references (_in6ifaput(ifp) + in6ifa_put(ifp)). With bad enough timing, this can happen:

  1. In ipv6getifaddr, hlistforeachentryrcu returns an entry.

  2. Then, the whole ipv6deladdr is executed for the given entry. The reference count drops to zero and kfree_rcu is scheduled.

  3. ipv6getifaddr continues and tries to increments the reference count (in6ifahold).

  4. The rcu is unlocked and the entry is freed.

  5. The freed entry is returned.

Prevent increasing of the reference count in such case. The name in6ifaholdsafe is chosen to mimic the existing fib6infoholdsafe.
