In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: Fix NULL pointer dereferencing in smc_vlan_by_tcpsk()
Coverity reports a possible NULL dereferencing problem:
in smc_vlan_by_tcpsk():
6. returned_null: netdev_lower_get_next returns NULL (checked 29 out of 30 times).
7. var_assigned: Assigning: ndev = NULL return value from netdev_lower_get_next.
1623 ndev = (struct net_device *)netdev_lower_get_next(ndev, &lower);
CID 1468509 (#1 of 1): Dereference null return value (NULL_RETURNS)
8. dereference: Dereferencing a pointer that might be NULL ndev when calling is_vlan_dev.
1624 if (is_vlan_dev(ndev)) {
Remove the manual implementation and use netdev_walk_all_lower_dev() to
iterate over the lower devices. While on it remove an obsolete function
parameter comment.
A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's SMC implementation in the smc_vlan_by_tcpsk() function. A potential NULL pointer dereference occurred when handling lower network devices, leading to system crashes and resulting in denial of service.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
