In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\nipv6: fix possible race in __fib6_drop_pcpu_from()\nsyzbot found a race in __fib6_drop_pcpu_from() [1]\nIf compiler reads more than once (*ppcpu_rt),\nsecond read could read NULL, if another cpu clears\nthe value in rt6_get_pcpu_route().\nAdd a READ_ONCE() to prevent this race.\nAlso add rcu_read_lock()/rcu_read_unlock() because\nwe rely on RCU protection while dereferencing pcpu_rt.\n[1]\nOops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc0000000012: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI\nKASAN: null-ptr-deref in range [0x0000000000000090-0x0000000000000097]\nCPU: 0 PID: 7543 Comm: kworker/u8:17 Not tainted 6.10.0-rc1-syzkaller-00013-g2bfcfd584ff5 #0\nHardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 04/02/2024\nWorkqueue: netns cleanup_net\nRIP: 0010:__fib6_drop_pcpu_from.part.0+0x10a/0x370 net/ipv6/ip6_fib.c:984\nCode: f8 48 c1 e8 03 80 3c 28 00 0f 85 16 02 00 00 4d 8b 3f 4d 85 ff 74 31 e8 74 a7 fa f7 49 8d bf 90 00 00 00 48 89 f8 48 c1 e8 03 <80> 3c 28 00 0f 85 1e 02 00 00 49 8b 87 90 00 00 00 48 8b 0c 24 48\nRSP: 0018:ffffc900040df070 EFLAGS: 00010206\nRAX: 0000000000000012 RBX: 0000000000000001 RCX: ffffffff89932e16\nRDX: ffff888049dd1e00 RSI: ffffffff89932d7c RDI: 0000000000000091\nRBP: dffffc0000000000 R08: 0000000000000005 R09: 0000000000000007\nR10: 0000000000000001 R11: 0000000000000006 R12: ffff88807fa080b8\nR13: fffffbfff1a9a07d R14: ffffed100ff41022 R15: 0000000000000001\nFS: 0000000000000000(0000) GS:ffff8880b9200000(0000) knlGS:0000000000000000\nCS: 0010 DS: 0000 ES: 0000 CR0: 0000000080050033\nCR2: 0000001b32c26000 CR3: 000000005d56e000 CR4: 00000000003526f0\nDR0: 0000000000000000 DR1: 0000000000000000 DR2: 0000000000000000\nDR3: 0000000000000000 DR6: 00000000fffe0ff0 DR7: 0000000000000400\nCall Trace:\n
