CVE-2024-33621: kernel: ipvlan: Dont Use skb-&gt;sk in ipvlan_process_v{4,6}_outbound
Component: kernel
Severity: Low
CWE: CWE-20 (Improper Input Validation)
CVSS v3: 2.3 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:H/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L)

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

ipvlan: Dont Use skb->sk in ipvlan_process_v{4,6}_outbound

Raw packet from PF_PACKET socket ontop of an IPv6-backed ipvlan device will
hit WARN_ON_ONCE() in sk_mc_loop() through sch_direct_xmit() path.

Call ip{6}_local_out() with NULL sk in ipvlan as other tunnels to fix this.
