net: mctp: Don't access ifa_index when missing
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
In mctp_dump_addrinfo, ifa_index can be used to filter interfaces, but
only when the struct ifaddrmsg is provided. Otherwise it will be
comparing to uninitialised memory - reproducible in the syzkaller case from
dhcpd, or busybox "ip addr show".

The kernel MCTP implementation has always filtered by ifa_index, so
existing userspace programs expecting to dump MCTP addresses must
already be passing a valid ifa_index value (either 0 or a real index).

BUG: KMSAN: uninit-value in mctp_dump_addrinfo+0x208/0xac0 net/mctp/device.c:128
