In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: tap: NULL pointer derefence in dev_parse_header_protocol when skb->dev is null Fixes a NULL pointer derefence bug triggered from tap driver. When tap_get_user calls virtio_net_hdr_to_skb the skb->dev is null (in tap.c skb->dev is set after the call to virtio_net_hdr_to_skb) virtio_net_hdr_to_skb calls dev_parse_header_protocol which needs skb->dev field to be valid. The line that trigers the bug is in dev_parse_header_protocol (dev is at offset 0x10 from skb and is stored in RAX register) if (!dev->header_ops || !dev->header_ops->parse_protocol) 22e1: mov 0x10(%rbx),%rax 22e5: mov 0x230(%rax),%rax Setting skb->dev before the call in tap.c fixes the issue.
