+mailing lists Hi Bernard, I've provided a bit more information on what I did here: https://groups.google.com/d/msg/syzkaller/v-4B3zoBC-4/MVgYoeSQCgAJ I really did not do anything fancy. FWIW I had to do the following locally just to prevent rose from crashing my machine all the time. I don't know if it's the right fix or not, I just used this as stop-gap. diff --git a/net/rose/rose_route.c b/net/rose/rose_route.c index 77e9f85a2c92..218308a3c02c 100644 --- a/net/rose/rose_route.c +++ b/net/rose/rose_route.c @@ -874,6 +874,8 @@ int rose_route_frame(struct sk_buff *skb, ax25_cb *ax25) skb->data[ROSE_CALL_REQ_ADDR_LEN_OFF] != ROSE_CALL_REQ_ADDR_LEN_VAL)) return res; + if (ax25 == NULL) + return res; src_addr = (rose_address *)(skb->data + ROSE_CALL_REQ_SRC_ADDR_OFF); dest_addr = (rose_address *)(skb->data + ROSE_CALL_REQ_DEST_ADDR_OFF); rose_xmit calls rose_route_frame with ax25==NULL, then rose_route_frame uses ax25 without any checks.
