Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
idpf: fix null-ptr-deref in idpf_features_check
idpf_features_check is used to validate the TX packet. skb header
length is compared with the hardware supported value received from
the device control plane. The value is stored in the adapter structure
and to access it, vport pointer is used. During reset all the vports
are released and the vport pointer that the netdev private structure
points to is NULL.
To avoid null-ptr-deref, store the max header length value in netdev
private structure. This also helps to cache the value and avoid
accessing adapter pointer in hot path.

A flaw was found in the idpf module in the Linux kernel. A null pointer dereference can be triggered when the driver attempts to use a resource that has already been released, resulting in a denial of service.
