In bond_do_ioctl(), slave_dev is obtained via __dev_get_by_name() which
can return NULL if the requested interface name does not exist. However,
the subsequent slave_dbg() call is placed before the NULL check:
slave_dev = __dev_get_by_name(net, ifr->ifr_slave);
slave_dbg(bond_dev, slave_dev, "slave_dev=%p:\n", slave_dev); //here
if (!slave_dev)
return -ENODEV;
The slave_dbg() macro expands to netdev_dbg(bond_dev, "(slave %s): " fmt,
(slave_dev)->name, ...) which unconditionally dereferences slave_dev->name
before the NULL check is performed. This results in a NULL pointer
dereference kernel oops when a user calls bonding ioctl (e.g.
SIOCBONDENSLAVE, SIOCBONDRELEASE, etc.) with a non-existent slave
interface name.
This is reachable from userspace via the bonding ioctl interface with
CAP_NET_ADMIN capability, making it a potential local denial-of-service
vector.
Fix by moving the slave_dbg() call after the NULL check.
