Technical description

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

bonding: provide a net pointer to __skb_flow_dissect()

After 3cbf4ffba5ee ("net: plumb network namespace into __skb_flow_dissect")

we have to provide a net pointer to __skb_flow_dissect(),

either via skb->dev, skb->sk, or a user provided pointer.

In the following case, syzbot was able to cook a bare skb.
