net: ipv6: regenerate host route if moved to gc list Taking down the loopback device wreaks havoc on IPv6 routing. By extension, taking down a VRF device wreaks havoc on its table. Dmitry and Andrey both reported heap out-of-bounds reports in the IPv6 FIB code while running syzkaller fuzzer. The root cause is a dead dst that is on the garbage list gets reinserted into the IPv6 FIB. While on the gc (or perhaps when it gets added to the gc list) the dst->next is set to an IPv4 dst. A subsequent walk of the ipv6 tables causes the out-of-bounds access. Andrey's reproducer was the key to getting to the bottom of this. With IPv6, host routes for an address have the dst->dev set to the loopback device. When the 'lo' device is taken down, rt6_ifdown initiates a walk of the fib evicting routes with the 'lo' device which means all host routes are removed. That process moves the dst which is attached to an inet6_ifaddr to the gc list and marks it as dead. The recent change to keep global IPv6 addresses added a new function, fixup_permanent_addr, that is called on admin up. That function restarts dad for an inet6_ifaddr and when it completes the host route attached to it is inserted into the fib. Since the route was marked dead and moved to the gc list, re-inserting the route causes the reported out-of-bounds accesses. If the device with the address is taken down or the address is removed, the WARN_ON in fib6_del is triggered. All of those faults are fixed by regenerating the host route if the existing one has been moved to the gc list, something that can be determined by checking if the rt6i_ref counter is 0.
