Subject: ipv6: NULL pointer dereferrence in tcp_v6_send_ack
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.27~6^2~10
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=2a5b82751f73a0bf6f604ce56d34adba6da1b246;p=platform%2Fupstream%2Fkernel-adaptation-pc.git

ipv6: NULL pointer dereferrence in tcp_v6_send_ack

The following actions are possible:
tcp_v6_rcv
  skb->dev = NULL;
  tcp_v6_do_rcv
    tcp_v6_hnd_req
      tcp_check_req
        req->rsk_ops->send_ack == tcp_v6_send_ack

So, skb->dev can be NULL in tcp_v6_send_ack. We must obtain namespace
from dst entry.

Thanks to Vitaliy Gusev <vgusev@openvz.org> for initial problem finding
in IPv4 code.
