      <title>CVE-2022-49492 — nvme-pci: fix a NULL pointer dereference in nvme_alloc_admin_tags</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2022-49492</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;nvme-pci: fix a NULL pointer dereference in nvme_alloc_admin_tags&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In nvme_alloc_admin_tags, the admin_q can be set to an error (typically
-ENOMEM) if the blk_mq_init_queue call fails to set up the queue, which
is checked immediately after the call. However, when we return the error
message up the stack, to nvme_reset_work the error takes us to
nvme_remove_dead_ctrl()
  nvme_dev_disable()
   nvme_suspend_queue(&amp;amp;dev-&amp;gt;queues[0]).&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here, we only check that the admin_q is non-NULL, rather than not
an error or NULL, and begin quiescing a queue that never existed, leading
to bad / NULL pointer dereference.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
