CVE-2023-53201

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description The Linux kernel contains a flaw in the RDMA/bnxt re driver related to the handling of the mbox producer index wraparound. The driver incorrectly manages the wraparound of the mbox producer index, potentially leading to a firmware hang when the producer index overflows. Specifically, bit 31 of the producer index register is not handled correctly, causing the firmware to enter an initialization sequence and hang.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
