Subject: CVE-2023-52579: ipv4: fix null-deref in ipv4_link_failure
Description
===========
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv4: fix null-deref in ipv4_link_failure
Currently, we assume the skb is associated with a device before calling
__ip_options_compile, which is not always the case if it is re-routed by
ipvs.
When skb->dev is NULL, dev_net(skb->dev) will become null-dereference.
This patch adds a check for the edge case and switch to use the net_device
from the rtable when skb->dev is NULL.
The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2023-52579 to this issue.

Mitigation
==========
The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest
stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual
changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel
release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or
supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to
the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this
issue can be found at these commits:
