But this function is only executed\nwhen bat_priv->bla.claim_hash is not NULL. And since batadv_bla_free() is\nalways setting it to NULL before it is (indirectly) called, it was never\nactually executed.\n\nBut the batadv_bla_purge_claims() -> batadv_handle_unclaim() is at the\nmoment too fragile because the BLA code is not handling the rehashing in\nbatadv_bla_update_orig_address(). The stored backbone address doesn't have\nto be the one actually used for the hash bucket selection during the\ninitial adding of the backbone. The batadv_handle_unclaim() can therefore\nfail to find the respective backbone for the unclaim and then stop the\ndeletion.\n\nBut the actual backbone_gw object is not needed for the unclaim because all\nrelevant information is always provided by the caller. And the check for\nthe existence of the backbone_gw doesn't provide any additional security\ncheck for the deletion of a claim."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["net/batman-adv/bridge_loop_avoidance.c"],"versions":[{"version":"23721387c409087fd3b97e274f34d3ddc0970b74","lessThan":"844a95a734f178d56c7acce14c5cce2cecff7e1a","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"23721387c409087fd3b97e274f34d3ddc0970b74","lessThan":"baeb1a28fd8e2f68193650d3664a8cd1adfd85c6","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"23721387c409087fd3b97e274f34d3ddc0970b74","lessThan":"aacffa780a37e06cd5a13d33740a6e96c3a67e6c","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"23721387c409087fd3b97e274f34d3ddc0970b74","lessThan":"76aedcde5a2489cc971d4d1e396e784a49565e96","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"23721387c409087fd3b97e274f34d3ddc0970b74","lessThan":"f50edb69082a8ba990cc23d642089829f99afe6a","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"23721387c409087fd3b97e274f34d3ddc0970b74","lessThan":"871acdf97f64cee8398f72b88b89e8b4f4816dbe","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"23721387c409087fd3b97e274f34d3ddc0970b74","lessThan":"9a0c47023d3254048a1588534755d4476bcc3abc","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"23721387c409087fd3b97e274f34d3ddc0970b74","lessThan":"8d128c932bced74e3b1625ba3d7c78ef122a88a7","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["net/batman-adv/bridge_loop_avoidance.c"],"versions":[{"version":"3.5","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"3.5","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.10.270","lessThanOrEqual":"5.10.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"5.15.221","lessThanOrEqual":"5.15.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.188","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.157","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.110","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.51","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2.5","lessThanOrEqual":"7.2.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.3-rc1","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.5","versionEndExcluding":"5.10.270"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.5","versionEndExcluding":"5.15.221"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.5","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.188"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.5","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.157"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.5","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.110"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.5","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.51"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.5","versionEndExcluding":"7.2.5"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"3.5","versionEndExcluding":"7.3-rc1"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/844a95a734f178d56c7acce14c5cce2cecff7e1a"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/baeb1a28fd8e2f68193650d3664a8cd1adfd85c6"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/aacffa780a37e06cd5a13d33740a6e96c3a67e6c"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/76aedcde5a2489cc971d4d1e396e784a49565e96"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f50edb69082a8ba990cc23d642089829f99afe6a"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/871acdf97f64cee8398f72b88b89e8b4f4816dbe"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9a0c47023d3254048a1588534755d4476bcc3abc"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8d128c932bced74e3b1625ba3d7c78ef122a88a7"}],"title":"batman-adv: bla: fix freeing of claims on meshif deletion","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
