In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ipv6: add a retry logic in net6_rt_notify() inet6_rt_notify() can be called under RCU protection only. This means the route could be changed concurrently and rt6_fill_node() could return -EMSGSIZE. Re-size the skb when this happens and retry, removing one WARN_ON() that syzbot was able to trigger: WARNING: CPU: 3 PID: 6291 at net/ipv6/route.c:6342 inet6_rt_notify+0x475/0x4b0 net/ipv6/route.c:6342 Modules linked in: CPU: 3 UID: 0 PID: 6291 Comm: syz.0.77 Not tainted 6.16.0-rc7-syzkaller #0 PREEMPT(full) Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.16.3-debian-1.16.3-2~bpo12+1 04/01/2014 RIP: 0010:inet6_rt_notify+0x475/0x4b0 net/ipv6/route.c:6342 Code: fc ff ff e8 6d 52 ea f7 e9 47 fc ff ff 48 8b 7c 24 08
