Subject: [PATCH net 1/1] s390/qeth: fix L3 next-hop in xmit qeth hdr
Date: Mon,  7 Aug 2017 13:28:39 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20170807112839.91254-2-ubraun@linux.vnet.ibm.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20170807112839.91254-1-ubraun@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

From: Julian Wiedmann <jwi@linux.vnet.ibm.com>

On L3, the qeth_hdr struct needs to be filled with the next-hop
IP address.
The current code accesses rtable->rt_gateway without checking that
rtable is a valid address. The accidental access to a lowcore area
results in a random next-hop address in the qeth_hdr.
rtable (or more precisely, skb_dst(skb)) can be NULL in rare cases
(for instance together with AF_PACKET sockets).
This patch adds the missing NULL-ptr checks.
