for RHEL:8
relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: validate lwtstate->data before returning from skb_tunnel_info()
skb_tunnel_info() returns pointer of lwtstate->data as ip_tunnel_info type without validation. lwtstate->data can have various types such as mpls_iptunnel_encap, etc and these are not compatible. So skb_tunnel_info() should validate before returning that pointer.
