In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: fix crash in ethtool offline loopback test
Since the conversion of ice to page pool, the ethtool loopback test
crashes:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 000000000000000c

It crashes because we have not initialized libeth for the rx ring.
Fix it by treating ICE_VSI_LB VSIs slightly more like normal PF VSIs and
letting them have a q_vector. It's just a dummy, because the loopback
test does not use interrupts, but it contains a napi struct that can be
passed to libeth_rx_fq_create() called from ice_vsi_cfg_rxq() ->
ice_rxq_pp_create().
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ice network driver. When a local user performs an ethtool offline loopback test, the system can experience a kernel null pointer dereference. This occurs because the libeth library for the receive ring is not properly initialized. Successful exploitation of this vulnerability leads to a system crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
ΠΡΡΠ΅Ρ
This issue only affects systems with Intel ice network hardware and only triggers when an administrator explicitly runs the ethtool offline loopback self-test. Normal network operations are unaffected. The flaw requires local privileged access to run ethtool diagnostics, limiting the practical attack surface to administrative contexts.
