Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ipv6: fix lockdep splat in in6_dump_addrs()

As reported by syzbot, we should not use rcu_dereference() when rcu_read_lock() is not held.

WARNING: suspicious RCU usage 5.19.0-rc2-syzkaller #0 Not tainted

net/ipv6/addrconf.c:5175 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

other info that might help us debug this:

rcu_scheduler_active = 2, debug_locks = 1 1 lock held by syz-executor326/3617: #0: ffffffff8d5848e8 (rtnl_mutex){+.+.}-{3:3}, at: netlink_dump+0xae/0xc20 net/netlink/af_netlink.c:2223
