In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix incorrect list API usage
Both the function that migrates all the chunks within a region and the
function that migrates all the entries within a chunk call
list_first_entry() on the respective lists without checking that the
lists are not empty. This is incorrect usage of the API, which leads to
the following warning [1].
Fix by returning if the lists are empty as there is nothing to migrate
in this case.

The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-36006 to this issue.

Отчет
This vulnerability is rated as Low severity for Red Hat Enterprise Linux because it requires specialized Mellanox Spectrum switch hardware to be physically present and actively utilized by the system. The issue is confined to access control list (ACL) TCAM table rehash operations handled by the Mellanox switch driver, where unexpected empty list handling triggers a kernel warning. Standard enterprise deployments without Mellanox Spectrum switching silicon are not exposed to this flaw, and even when present, exploitation only impacts availability by inducing a kernel warning without compromising confidentiality or integrity.
