In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ipv6: fix dst ref loops in rpl, seg6 and ioam6 lwtunnels
Some lwtunnels have a dst cache for post-transformation dst.
If the packet destination did not change we may end up recording
a reference to the lwtunnel in its own cache, and the lwtunnel
state will never be freed.
Discovered by the ioam6.sh test, kmemleak was recently fixed
to catch per-cpu memory leaks. I'm not sure if rpl and seg6
can actually hit this, but in principle I don't see why not.
