You may have to resort to using an attachment. Also, iproute2 uses kernel coding style and indentation is done with tabs not spaces. If this is all too hard for you to fix, I can just do it manually.

The vulnerability happens in load_ugly_table(), misc/nstat.c, in the latest version of iproute2. The vulnerability can be triggered by: 1. db is set to NULL at struct nstat_ent *db = NULL; 2. n is set to NULL at n = db; 3. NULL dereference of variable n happens at sscanf(p+1, "%llu", &n->val) != 1 Subject: [PATCH] Fix Null Dereference when no entries are specified Signed-off-by: Ziao Li <leeziao0331@gmail.com> --- misc/nstat.c | 4 ++++ 1 file changed, 4 insertions(+) -- 2.34.1
