In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: ioam: fix type confusion of dst_entry
IOAM uses a dummy dst_entry(null_dst) to mark that the destination should
not be changed after the transformation. This dst is stored in the IOAM lwt
state and may be passed to dst_cache_set_ip6().
However, the IPv6 dst cache path eventually calls rt6_get_cookie(), which
treats the dst_entry as part of a struct rt6_info. Since the null_dst was
embedded directly as a struct dst_entry in struct ioam6_lwt, this resulted
in an invalid cast and rt6_get_cookie() reading fields from the wrong
object.
In practice, the wrong cookie is not used while dst->obsolete is zero, but
rt6_get_cookie() may also access per-cpu value when rt->sernum is
zero. In this case, rt->sernum aliases ioam6_lwt::cache::reset_ts, which
can become zero, making this a potential invalid pointer access.
Fix this by embedding a full struct rt6_info for the dummy IPv6 route and
passing its dst member to the dst APIs.
