Subject: [PATCH] macvlan: fix possible UAF in macvlan_forward_source()
Date: Thu,  8 Jan 2026 13:36:51 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260108133651.1130486-1-edumazet@google.com> (raw)

Add RCU protection on (struct macvlan_source_entry)->vlan.

Whenever macvlan_hash_del_source() is called, we must clear
entry->vlan pointer before RCU grace period starts.

This allows macvlan_forward_source() to skip over
entries queued for freeing.

Note that macvlan_dev are already RCU protected, as they
are embedded in a standard netdev (netdev_priv(ndev)).

Fixes: 79cf79abce71 ("macvlan: add source mode")
