Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mpls: fix NULL deref in mpls_valid_fib_dump_req() on CONFIG_INET=n
On CONFIG_INET=n builds, mpls_valid_fib_dump_req() walks the parsed
attribute table itself instead of calling ip_valid_fib_dump_req(). The
RTA_OIF arm passes tb[RTA_OIF] to nla_get_u32() without checking it is
present, so an RTM_GETROUTE dump for AF_MPLS with strict checking and no
RTA_OIF hits a NULL dereference.
RTM_GETROUTE is RTNL_KIND_GET, which rtnetlink_rcv_msg() permits without
CAP_NET_ADMIN, so an unprivileged user can trigger it.
Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address
