__in6_dev_get(dev) called from inet6_set_link_af() can return NULL.
The needed check has been recently removed, let's add it back.
While do_setlink() does call validate_linkmsg() :
...
err = validate_linkmsg(dev, tb); /* OK at this point */
...
It is possible that the following call happening before the
->set_link_af() removes IPv6 if MTU is less than 1280 :
if (tb[IFLA_MTU]) {
err = dev_set_mtu_ext(dev, nla_get_u32(tb[IFLA_MTU]), extack);
if (err < 0)
goto errout;
status |= DO_SETLINK_MODIFIED;
}
...
if (tb[IFLA_AF_SPEC]) {
...
err = af_ops->set_link_af(dev, af);
->inet6_set_link_af() // CRASH because idev is NULL
Please note that IPv4 is immune to the bug since inet_set_link_af() does :
struct in_device *in_dev = __in_dev_get_rcu(dev);
if (!in_dev)
return -EAFNOSUPPORT;
