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

ipvlan: Dont Use skb->sk in ipvlan_process_v{4,6}_outbound

Raw packet from PF_PACKET socket ontop of an IPv6-backed ipvlan device will
hit WARN_ON_ONCE() in sk_mc_loop() through sch_direct_xmit() path.

__dev_queue_xmit
__dev_xmit_skb //q->enqueue is not NULL
__qdisc_run
sch_direct_xmit
dev_hard_start_xmit

ip6_local_out
__ip6_finish_output
ip6_finish_output2 //multicast packet
sk_mc_loop //sk->sk_family is AF_PACKET

Call ip{6}_local_out() with NULL sk in ipvlan as other tunnels to fix this.
