Subject: [PATCH net 0/2] vti: fix tunnel device use-after-free across async crypto resumption
Date: Wed, 30 Sep 2026 17:08:10 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260930090813.73901-1-q.h.hack.winter@gmail.com> (raw)
vti_input() and vti6_input_proto() cache the tunnel pointer in the skb
control buffer without taking a reference. With async crypto the
receive callback runs from the crypto completion, so a concurrent
RTM_DELLINK can free the tunnel device before the callback uses the
cached pointer. The existing rcu_read_lock() around the callback does
not protect it.
Patch 1 fixes the IPv4 side and carries the full description; patch 2
applies the same fix to the IPv6 side.

vti6: fix tunnel device use-after-free across async crypto resumption
