Original source description

Read the full publisher description

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

ipv6: do not warn on route notification size race

fib6_info_hw_flags_set() sizes the skb with rt6_nlmsg_size() and later fills it with rt6_fill_node(). With nexthop compatibility mode enabled, a concurrent replacement can grow the group between these independent snapshots. rt6_fill_node() can then legitimately return -EMSGSIZE, so the warning does not prove a sizing bug.

Remove the warning. The existing error path still frees the skb and reports the error to listeners.
