Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> batman-adv: bla: avoid NULL-ptr deref for claim via dropped interface<br /> <br /> Without rtnl_lock held, a hardif might be retrieved as primary interface of<br /> a meshif, but then (while operating on this interface) getting decoupled<br /> from the mesh interface. In this case, the meshif still exists but the<br /> pointer from the primary hardif to the meshif is set to NULL.<br /> <br /> The mesh_iface must be checked first to be non-NULL before continuing to<br /> send an ARP request using meshif.
