n the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: microchip: sparx5: Fix potential null-ptr-deref in sparx_stats_init() and sparx5_start() sparx_stats_init() calls create_singlethread_workqueue() and not checked the ret value, which may return NULL. And a null-ptr-deref may happen: sparx_stats_init() create_singlethread_workqueue() # failed, sparx5->stats_queue is NULL queue_delayed_work() queue_delayed_work_on() __queue_delayed_work() # warning here, but continue __queue_work() # access wq->flags, null-ptr-deref Check the ret value and return -ENOMEM if it is NULL. So as sparx5_start().

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: net: microchip: sparx5: Se corrige un posible null-ptr-deref en sparx_stats_init() y sparx5_start(). sparx_stats_init() llama a create_singlethread_workqueue() y no comprueba el valor ret, lo que puede devolver NULL. Y puede ocurrir un null-ptr-deref: sparx_stats_init() create_singlethread_workqueue() # falló, sparx5->stats_queue es NULL queue_delayed_work() queue_delayed_work_on() __queue_delayed_work() # advertencia aquí, pero continúe __queue_work() # acceso a wq->flags, null-ptr-deref Compruebe el valor ret y devuelva -ENOMEM si es NULL. Así como sparx5_start().
