In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: remove WARN_ON_ONCE() from the dev_fill_forward_path() loop check
ipip_fill_forward_path() and ip6_tnl_fill_forward_path() look up the
route to the tunnel's remote endpoint and set ctx->dev to its device,
which is the tunnel itself when that route resolves back to the tunnel.
dev_fill_forward_path() then makes no progress and trips
WARN_ON_ONCE(last_dev == ctx->dev) as soon as a flowtable tries to
offload a flow through the tunnel. That routing loop is a configuration
any CAP_NET_ADMIN user can set up, and ip_tunnel_xmit() and
ip6_tnl_xmit() already treat it as a tx error, so remove the warning and
just fail the walk, as commit 008e7a7c293b ("net: remove WARN_ON_ONCE
when accessing forward path array") did for the path stack overflow.
