the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nipvlan: Fix use-after-free in ipvlan_get_iflink().\n\nsyzbot presented an use-after-free report [0] regarding ipvlan and\nlinkwatch.\n\nipvlan does not hold a refcnt of the lower device unlike vlan and\nmacvlan.\n\nIf the linkwatch work is triggered for the ipvlan dev, the lower dev\nmight have already been freed, resulting in UAF of ipvlan->phy_dev in\nipvlan_get_iflink().\n\nWe can delay the lower dev unregistration like vlan and macvlan by\nholding the lower dev's refcnt in dev->netdev_ops->ndo_init() and\nreleasing it in dev->priv_destructor().\n\nJakub pointed out calling .ndo_XXX after unregister_netdevice() has\nreturned is error prone and suggested [1] addressing this UAF in the\ncore by taking commit 750e51603395 (\"net: avoid potential UAF in\ndefault_operstate()\") further.\n\nLet's assume unregistering devices DOWN and use RCU protection in\ndefault_operstate() not to race with the device unregistration.\n\n[0]:\nBUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in ipvlan_get_iflink+0x84/0x88 drivers/net/ipvlan/ipvlan_main.c:353\nRead of size 4 at addr ffff0000d768c0e0 by task
