In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
idpf: fix possible vport_config NULL pointer deref in remove
Attempting to remove the driver will cause a crash in cases where
the vport failed to initialize. Following trace is from an instance where
the driver failed during an attempt to create a VF:

Avoid the NULL pointer dereference by adding NULL pointer check for
vport_config[i], before freeing user_config.q_coalesce.
A null pointer dereference was found in the Intel IDPF network driver in the Linux kernel. When a vport fails to initialize (e.g., during VF creation timeout), attempting to remove the driver crashes because idpf_remove() dereferences vport_config without checking for NULL.
Отчет
This affects Intel Infrastructure Data Path Function (IDPF) devices, typically used in data center environments. The crash occurs only after initialization failures followed by driver removal.
