Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-02-27 21:31 – Updated: 2024-04-10 21:30

Details

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

sfc: adjust efx->xdp_tx_queue_count with the real number of initialized queues

efx->xdp_tx_queue_count is initially initialized to num_possible_cpus() and is later used to allocate and traverse efx->xdp_tx_queues lookup array. However, we may end up not initializing all the array slots with real queues during probing. This results, for example, in a NULL pointer dereference, when running "# ethtool -S ", similar to below
