In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: stop exception dump when nexthop group shrinks
Commit 4ce5dc9316de ("inet: switch inet_dump_fib() to RCU
protection") allowed IPv4 FIB dumps to run concurrently with nexthop
replacement.
fib_dump_info_fnhe() uses fib_info_num_path() as the loop bound,
then fib_info_nhc() independently reloads nh->nh_grp. If
RTM_NEWNEXTHOP replaces a group with fewer paths between those loads,
fib_info_nhc() returns NULL and the dump dereferences it through
nhc_flags.
Stop the walk when the indexed path is absent. Nexthop groups are
dense, so the current snapshot has no later path.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A local user can cause a Denial of Service (DoS) due to a race condition in the IPv4 routing subsystem. When routing table dumps execute concurrently with nexthop group updates that reduce the number of paths, the kernel attempts to access an absent path, triggering a NULL pointer dereference and system crash.
