Deskripsi CVE
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ipv6: addrconf: fix temp address generation after prefix deprecation
When a router temporarily deprecates an IPv6 prefix (either by sending a
Router Advertisement with Preferred Lifetime = 0 or by letting the
lifetime expire) and later restores it, the kernel permanently loses its
ability to generate temporary privacy addresses (RFC 8981) for that
prefix.
This happens because the address worker attempts to generate a
replacement temporary address when the current one nears expiration. As
the base prefix is deprecated already, the generation fails after
marking the temporary address as already having spawned a replacement
(ifp->regen_count++).
When the router eventually restores the prefix, the temporary address
becomes active again. However, once it naturally expires, the address
worker sees this temporary address already tried to generate one and
skips the regeneration.
Fix the issue by resetting the regen_count check of the latest temp
address generated for the prefix updated by the incoming RA.
