CVE-2023-53477

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipv6: Add lwtunnel encap size of all siblings in nexthop calculation In function rt6_nlmsg_size(), the length of nexthop is calculated by multipling the nexthop length of fib6_info and the number of siblings. However if the fib6_info has no lwtunnel but the siblings have lwtunnels, the nexthop length is less than it should be, and it will trigger a warning in inet6_rt_notify() as follows: WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 6082 at net/ipv6/route.c:6180 inet6_rt_notify+0x120/0x130 ......

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

ipv6: Add lwtunnel encap size of all siblings in nexthop calculation

In function rt6_nlmsg_size(), the length of nexthop is calculated by multipling the nexthop length of fib6_info and the number of siblings. However if the fib6_info has no lwtunnel but the siblings have lwtunnels, the nexthop length is less than it should be, and it will trigger a warning in inet6_rt_notify() as follows:

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 6082 at net/ipv6/route.c:6180 inet6_rt_notify+0x120/0x130 ...... Call Trace: <TASK> fib6_add_rt2node+0x685/0xa30 fib6_add+0x96/0x1b0 ip6_route_add+0x50/0xd0 inet6_rtm_newroute+0x97/0xa0 rtnetlink_rcv_msg+0x156/0x3d0 netlink_rcv_skb+0x5a/0x110 netlink_unicast+0x246/0x350 netlink_sendmsg+0x250/0x4c0 sock_sendmsg+0x66/0x70 ___sys_sendmsg+0x7c/0xd0 __sys_sendmsg+0x5d/0xb0 do_syscall_64+0x3f/0x90 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x72/0xdc

This bug can be reproduced by script:

ip -6 addr add 2002::2/64 dev ens2 ip -6 route add 100::/64 via 2002::1 dev ens2 metric 100

for i in 10 20 30 40 50 60 70; do ip link add link ens2 name ipv_$i type ipvlan ip -6 addr add 2002::$i/64 dev ipv_$i ifconfig ipv_$i up done

for i in 10 20 30 40 50 60; do ip -6 route append 100::/64 encap ip6 dst 2002::$i via 2002::1 dev ipv_$i metric 100 done

ip -6 route append 100::/64 via 2002::1 dev ipv_70 metric 100

This patch fixes it by adding nexthop_len of every siblings using rt6_nh_nlmsg_size().
