From: Guillaume Nault g.nault@alphalink.fr

[ Upstream commit 8f7dc9ae4a7aece9fbc3e6637bdfa38b36bcdf09 ]

Using l2tp_tunnel_find() in l2tp_ip_recv() is wrong for two reasons:

* It doesn't take a reference on the returned tunnel, which makes the call racy wrt. concurrent tunnel deletion.

* The lookup is only based on the tunnel identifier, so it can return a tunnel that doesn't match the packet's addresses or protocol.

For example, a packet sent to an L2TPv3 over IPv6 tunnel can be delivered to an L2TPv2 over UDPv4 tunnel. This is worse than a simple cross-talk: when delivering the packet to an L2TP over UDP tunnel, the corresponding socket is UDP, where ->sk_backlog_rcv() is NULL. Calling sk_receive_skb() will then crash the kernel by trying to execute this callback.

And l2tp_tunnel_find() isn't even needed here. __l2tp_ip_bind_lookup() properly checks the socket binding and connection settings. It was used as a fallback mechanism for finding tunnels that didn't have their data path registered yet. But it's not limited to this case and can be used to replace l2tp_tunnel_find() in the general case.

Fix l2tp_ip6 in the same way.
