In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: teql: fix NULL pointer dereference in iptunnel_xmit on TEQL slave xmit
teql_master_xmit() calls netdev_start_xmit(skb, slave) to transmit
through slave devices, but does not update skb->dev to the slave device
beforehand.
When a gretap tunnel is a TEQL slave, the transmit path reaches
iptunnel_xmit() which saves dev = skb->dev (still pointing to teql0
master) and later calls iptunnel_xmit_stats(dev, pkt_len). This
function does:
get_cpu_ptr(dev->tstats)
Since teql_master_setup() does not set dev->pcpu_stat_type to
NETDEV_PCPU_STAT_TSTATS, the core network stack never allocates tstats
for teql0, so dev->tstats is NULL. get_cpu_ptr(NULL) computes
NULL + __per_cpu_offset[cpu], resulting in a page fault.

Fix this by setting skb->dev = slave before calling
netdev_start_xmit(), so that tunnel xmit functions see the correct
slave device with properly allocated tstats.

CVE-2026-23277 GHSA-v66f-jqgm-8687: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: teql: fix NULL pointer dereference in iptunnel_xmit on TEQL slave xmit
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: teql: fix NULL pointer dereference in iptunnel_xmit on TEQL slave xmit
teql_master_xmit() calls netdev_start_xmit(skb, slave) to transmit
through slave devices, but does not update skb->dev to the slave device
beforehand.
When a gretap tunnel is a TEQL slave, the transmit path reaches
iptunnel_xmit() which saves dev = skb->dev (still pointing to teql0
master) and later calls iptunnel_xmit_stats(dev, pkt_len). This
function does:
get_cpu_ptr(dev->tstats)
Since teql_master_setup() does not set dev->pcpu_stat_type to
NETDEV_PCPU_STAT_TSTATS, the core network stack never allocates tstats
for teql0, so dev->tstats is NULL. get_cpu_ptr(NULL) computes
NULL + __per_cpu_offset[cpu], resulting in a page fault.
