What it is

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

batman-adv: v: prevent OGM aggregation on disabled hardif

When an interface gets disabled, the worker is correctly disabled by

batadv_hardif_disable_interface() -> ... -> batadv_v_ogm_iface_disable().

In this process, the skb aggr_list is also freed.

But batadv_v_ogm_send_meshif() can still queue new skbs (via

batadv_v_ogm_queue_on_if()) to the aggr_list. This will only stop after all

cores can no longer find the RCU protected list of hard interfaces. These

queued skbs will never be freed or consumed by batadv_v_ogm_aggr_work.

The batadv_v_ogm_iface_disable() function must block

batadv_v_ogm_queue_on_if() to avoid leak of skbs.
