From: Xin Long <lucien.xin@xxxxxxxxx> commit f6a23d85d078c2ffde79c66ca81d0a1dde451649 upstream. This patch is to fix a crash: [ ] kasan: GPF could be caused by NULL-ptr deref or user memory access [ ] general protection fault: 0000 [#1] SMP KASAN PTI [ ] RIP: 0010:ipv6_local_error+0xac/0x7a0 [ ] Call Trace: [ ] xfrm6_local_error+0x1eb/0x300 [ ] xfrm_local_error+0x95/0x130 [ ] __xfrm6_output+0x65f/0xb50 [ ] xfrm6_output+0x106/0x46f [ ] udp_tunnel6_xmit_skb+0x618/0xbf0 [ip6_udp_tunnel] [ ] vxlan_xmit_one+0xbc6/0x2c60 [vxlan] [ ] vxlan_xmit+0x6a0/0x4276 [vxlan] [ ] dev_hard_start_xmit+0x165/0x820 [ ] __dev_queue_xmit+0x1ff0/0x2b90 [ ] ip_finish_output2+0xd3e/0x1480 [ ] ip_do_fragment+0x182d/0x2210 [ ] ip_output+0x1d0/0x510 [ ] ip_send_skb+0x37/0xa0 [ ] raw_sendmsg+0x1b4c/0x2b80 [ ] sock_sendmsg+0xc0/0x110 This occurred when sending a v4 skb over vxlan6 over ipsec, in which case skb->protocol == htons(ETH_P_IPV6) while skb->sk->sk_family == AF_INET in xfrm_local_error(). Then it will go to xfrm6_local_error() where it tries to get ipv6 info from a ipv4 sk. This issue was actually fixed by Commit 628e341f319f ("xfrm: make local error reporting more robust"), but brought back by Commit 844d48746e4b ("xfrm: choose protocol family by skb protocol"). So to fix it, we should call xfrm6_local_error() only when skb->protocol is htons(ETH_P_IPV6) and skb->sk->sk_family is AF_INET6.
