In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: prevent NULL dereference in ip6_output()
According to syzbot, there is a chance that ip6_dst_idev()
returns NULL in ip6_output(). Most places in IPv6 stack
deal with a NULL idev just fine, but not here.
syzbot reported:
general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address
