In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: fix NULL pointer dereference in l3mdev_l3_rcv

When delete l3s ipvlan:

ip link del link eth0 ipvlan1 type ipvlan mode l3s

This may cause a null pointer dereference:

Call trace:
 ip_rcv_finish+0x48/0xd0

This is because l3mdev_l3_rcv() visit dev->l3mdev_ops after ipvlan_l3s_unregister() assign the dev->l3mdev_ops to NULL. The process like this:

(CPU1)                     | (CPU2)
l3mdev_l3_rcv()            |
  check dev-&gt;priv_flags:   |
    master = skb-&gt;dev;     |
                           |
                           | ipvlan_l3s_unregister()
                           |   set dev-&gt;priv_flags
                           |   dev-&gt;l3mdev_ops = NULL;
                           |
  visit master-&gt;l3mdev_ops |

To avoid this by do not set dev->l3mdev_ops when unregister l3s ipvlan.
