From: Stefano Brivio <sbrivio@xxxxxxxxxx> Commit ba5ea614622d ("bridge: simplify ip_mc_check_igmp() and ipv6_mc_check_mld() calls") replaces direct calls to pskb_may_pull() in br_ipv6_multicast_mld2_report() with calls to ipv6_mc_may_pull(), that returns -EINVAL on buffers too short to be valid IPv6 packets, while maintaining the previous handling of the return code. This leads to the direct opposite of the intended effect: if the packet is malformed, -EINVAL evaluates as true, and we'll happily proceed with the processing. Return 0 if the packet is too short, in the same way as this was fixed for IPv4 by commit 083b78a9ed64 ("ip: fix ip_mc_may_pull() return value"). I don't have a reproducer for this, unlike the one referred to by the IPv4 commit, but this is clearly broken.
