CVE-2025-71133

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

RDMA/irdma: avoid invalid read in irdma_net_event

irdma_net_event() should not dereference anything from "neigh" (alias "ptr") until it has checked that the event is NETEVENT_NEIGH_UPDATE. Other events come with different structures pointed to by "ptr" and they may be smaller than struct neighbour.

Move the read of neigh->dev under the NETEVENT_NEIGH_UPDATE case.

The bug is mostly harmless, but it triggers KASAN on debug kernels:
