Subject: [PATCH net] ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix possible NULL deref in lowpan_device_event()
Date: Mon, 05 Mar 2018 08:51:03 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <1520268663.109662.5.camel@gmail.com> (raw)
From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>
A tun device type can trivially be set to arbitrary value using
TUNSETLINK ioctl().
Therefore, lowpan_device_event() must really check that ieee802154_ptr
is not NULL.
Fixes: 2c88b5283f60d ("ieee802154: 6lowpan: remove check on null")
