From 7f109f7cc37108cba7243bc832988525b0d85909 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Nikolay Aleksandrov Date: Sat, 21 Nov 2015 19:46:19 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] vrf: fix double free and memory corruption on register_netdevice failure When vrf's ->newlink is called, if register_netdevice() fails then it does free_netdev(), but that's also done by rtnl_newlink() so a second free happens and memory gets corrupted, to reproduce execute the following line a couple of times (1 - 5 usually is enough): $ for i in `seq 1 5`; do ip link add vrf: type vrf table 1; done; This works because we fail in register_netdevice() because of the wrong name "vrf:". And here's a trace of one crash: [ 28.792157] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 28.792407] kernel BUG at fs/namei.c:246!
