From 303216e76dcab6049c9d42390b1032f0649a8206 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Sven Eckelmann Date: Wed, 22 Jul 2020 20:36:43 +0200 Subject: batman-adv: Avoid uninitialized chaddr when handling DHCP The gateway client code can try to optimize the delivery of DHCP packets to avoid broadcasting them through the whole mesh. But also transmissions to the client can be optimized by looking up the destination via the chaddr of the DHCP packet. But the chaddr is currently only done when chaddr is fully inside the non-paged area of the skbuff. Otherwise it will not be initialized and the unoptimized path should have been taken. But the implementation didn't handle this correctly. It didn't retrieve the correct chaddr but still tried to perform the TT lookup with this uninitialized memory.
