In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: Fix null deref accessing lag dev
It could be the lag dev is null so stop processing the event.
In bond_enslave() the active/backup slave being set before setting the
upper dev so first event is without an upper dev.
After setting the upper dev with bond_master_upper_dev_link() there is
a second event and in that event we have an upper dev.
A vulnerability was found in the net/mlx5e driver in the Linux kernel where a NULL pointer dereference was caused when accessing a lag device. This issue occurred because the driver processed an event without confirming the existence of an upper device, which led to potential crashes.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Red Hat has investigated whether a possible mitigation exists for this issue, and has not been able to identify a practical example. Please update the affected package as soon as possible.
