From 22df13319d1fec30b8f9bcaadc295829647109bb Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Eric Dumazet Date: Tue, 23 Aug 2011 19:57:05 +0000 Subject: bridge: fix a possible use after free br_multicast_ipv6_rcv() can call pskb_trim_rcsum() and therefore skb head can be reallocated. Cache icmp6_type field instead of dereferencing twice the struct icmp6hdr pointer. Signed-off-by: Eric Dumazet Signed-off-by: David S.
