#1582735 — [PATCH 4.4 06/20] ipv4: keep skb->dst around in presence of IP options

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Eric Dumazet <edumazet@google.com>


[ Upstream commit 34b2cef20f19c87999fff3da4071e66937db9644 ]

Andrey Konovalov got crashes in __ip_options_echo() when a NULL skb->dst
is accessed.

ipv4_pktinfo_prepare() should not drop the dst if (evil) IP options
are present.

We could refine the test to the presence of ts_needtime or srr,
but IP options are not often used, so let's be conservative.

Thanks to syzkaller team for finding this bug.
