Xiang Mei (Microsoft) c141f69d0a netfilter: bridge: fix stale prevhdr pointer in br_ip6_fragment()
commit 86f3ce81dd upstream.

br_ip6_fragment() gets prevhdr, a pointer into the skb head, from
ip6_find_1stfragopt(), then calls skb_checksum_help().  For a cloned skb
skb_checksum_help() reallocates the head via pskb_expand_head(), leaving
prevhdr dangling.  It is later dereferenced in ip6_frag_next(), causing a
use-after-free write.

Save prevhdr's offset before skb_checksum_help() and recompute it after,
like commit ef0efcd3bd ("ipv6: Fix dangling pointer when ipv6
fragment").

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
