Descriptions
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: i40e: Fix NULL pointer dereference in i40e_dbg_dump_desc When trying to dump VFs VSI RX/TX descriptors
using debugfs there was a crash
due to NULL pointer dereference in i40e_dbg_dump_desc.
Added a check to i40e_dbg_dump_desc that checks if
VSI type is correct for dumping RX/TX descriptors.
En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: i40e: Se corrigió la desreferencia del puntero NULL en i40e_dbg_dump_desc Al intentar volcar los descriptores VF VSI RX/TX usando debugfs, se produjo un bloqueo debido a la desreferencia del puntero NULL en i40e_dbg_dump_desc. Se agregó una verificación a i40e_dbg_dump_desc que verifica si el tipo de VSI es correcto para volcar descriptores RX/TX.

Ziming Zhang discovered that the VMware Virtual GPU DRM driver in the Linux kernel contained an integer overflow vulnerability. A local attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Zheng Wang discovered a use-after-free in the Renesas Ethernet AVB driver in the Linux kernel during device removal. A privileged attacker could use this to cause a denial of service. Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
