Descriptions

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net/smc: fix wrong list_del in smc_lgr_cleanup_early

smc_lgr_cleanup_early() meant to delete the link
group from the link group list, but it deleted
the list head by mistake.

This may cause memory corruption since we didn't
remove the real link group from the list and later
memseted the link group structure.
We got a list corruption panic when testing:

En el kernel de Linux, se resolvió la siguiente vulnerabilidad: net/smc: corrige list_del incorrecto en smc_lgr_cleanup_early smc_lgr_cleanup_early() pretendía eliminar el grupo de enlaces de la lista de grupos de enlaces, pero eliminó el encabezado de la lista por error. Esto puede causar daños en la memoria ya que no eliminamos el grupo de enlaces real de la lista y luego integramos la estructura del grupo de enlaces. Recibimos un pánico de corrupción de lista al realizar la prueba: [ 231.277259] list_del corruption. prev-&gt;next should be ffff8881398a8000, but was 0000000000000000 [ 231.278222] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 231.278726] kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:53!
