From: Eric Dumazet Date: Mon, 5 Mar 2018 16:51:03 +0000 (-0800) Subject: ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix possible NULL deref in lowpan_device_event() X-Git-Tag: v4.16-rc7~23^2~66 X-Git-Url: https://asedeno.scripts.mit.edu/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ca0edb131bdf1e6beaeb2b8289fd6b374b74147d;p=linux.git ieee802154: 6lowpan: fix possible NULL deref in lowpan_device_event() A tun device type can trivially be set to arbitrary value using TUNSETLINK ioctl(). Therefore, lowpan_device_event() must really check that ieee802154_ptr is not NULL.
