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

seg6: fix parameter passing when calling NF_HOOK() in End.DX4 and End.DX6 behaviors

inputactionenddx4() and inputactionenddx6() are called NFHOOK() for PREROUTING hook, in PREROUTING hook, we should passing a valid indev, and a NULL outdev to NFHOOK(), otherwise may trigger a NULL pointer dereference, as below:
