In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/ipv6: release expired exception dst cached in socket
Dst objects get leaked in ip6_negative_advice() when this function is executed for an expired IPv6 route located in the exception table. There are several conditions that must be fulfilled for the leak to occur:
- an ICMPv6 packet indicating a change of the MTU for the path is received, resulting in an exception dst being created
- a TCP connection that uses the exception dst for routing packets must start timing out so that TCP begins retransmissions
- after the exception dst expires, the FIB6 garbage collector must not run before TCP executes ip6_negative_advice() for the expired exception dst
When TCP executes ip6_negative_advice() for an exception dst that has expired and if no other socket holds a reference to the exception dst, the refcount of the exception dst is 2, which corresponds to the increment made by dst_init() and the increment made by th
