In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
octeontx2-pf: Fix aura BPID assignment when CONFIG DCB is enabled
Previously, BPID assignment under CONFIG DCB assumed
queue to pfc map was always initialized. For SDP VFs this leads to
invalid memory access as it was not initialized.This patch adds a NULL check for
queue to pfc map before
dereferencing it. Also, simplifies the logic by always assigning a
default BPID first, then conditionally overriding it if CONFIG DCB is
enabled and the map exists. Found an issue in the description? Have something to add? Feel free to write us 👾
