In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: prevent possible NULL deref in fib6_nh_init()
syzbot reminds us that in6_dev_get() can return NULL.
fib6_nh_init()
ip6_validate_gw( &idev )
ip6_route_check_nh( idev )
*idev = in6_dev_get(dev); // can be NULL
Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdffffc00000000bc: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN PTI
