In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/sched: Fix ethx:ingress -> ethy:egress -> ethx:ingress mirred loop
When mirred redirects to ingress (from either ingress or egress) the loop state from sched mirred dev array dev is lost because of 1) the packet deferral into the backlog and 2) the fact the sched mirred dev array is cleared. In such cases, if there was a loop we won't discover it.
Here's a simple test to reproduce: ip a add dev port0 10.10.10.11/24
tc qdisc add dev port0 clsact tc filter add dev port0 egress protocol ip prio 10 matchall action mirred ingress redirect dev port1
tc qdisc add dev port1 clsact tc filter add dev port1 ingress protocol ip prio 10 matchall action mirred egress redirect dev port0
ping -c 1 -W0.01 10.10.10.10
