Olliver reported that his system crashes when plugging in Thunderbolt 1
device:

This is due the fact that some Thunderbolt 1 devices only have one lane
adapter. Fix this by checking for the lane 1 before we read its credits.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: Thunderbolt: corrige la desreferencia del puntero NULL en tb_port_update_credits() Olliver informó que su sistema falla al conectar el dispositivo Thunderbolt 1: ERROR: desreferencia del puntero NULL del kernel, dirección: 0000000000000020 #PF: supervisor leído acceso en modo kernel #PF: error_code(0x0000) - página no presente PGD 0 P4D 0 Vaya: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI RIP: 0010:tb_port_do_update_credits+0x1b/0x130 [thunderbolt] Seguimiento de llamadas: ? __morir+0x23/0x70 ? page_fault_oops+0x171/0x4e0? exc_page_fault+0x7f/0x180? asm_exc_page_fault+0x26/0x30? tb_port_do_update_credits+0x1b/0x130 ? tb_switch_update_link_attributes+0x83/0xd0 tb_switch_add+0x7a2/0xfe0 tb_scan_port+0x236/0x6f0 tb_handle_hotplug+0x6db/0x900 Process_one_work+0x171/0x340 Workers_thread+0x27b/0x3a0 ? __pfx_worker_thread+0x10/0x10 kthread+0xe5/0x120 ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10 ret_from_fork+0x31/0x50 ? __pfx_kthread+0x10/0x10 ret_from_fork_asm+0x1b/0x30 Esto se debe al hecho de que algunos dispositivos Thunderbolt 1 solo tienen un adaptador de línea. Solucione este problema comprobando el carril 1 antes de leer sus créditos.
