[PATCH net-next 0/3] net: ipvlan: fix potential UAF problem for phy_dev

From: Ziyang Xuan <hidden>
Date: 2022-03-14 10:53:59
Also in: lkml

Add the reference operation to phy_dev of ipvlan to avoid
the potential UAF problem under the following known scenario:

Someone module puts the NETDEV_UNREGISTER event handler to a
work, and phy_dev is accessed in the work handler. But when
the work is excuted, phy_dev has been destroyed because upper
ipvlan did not get reference to phy_dev correctly.

In addition, add net device refcount tracker to ipvlan and
fix some error comments for ipvtap module.
