Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
igb: Do not free q_vector unless new one was allocated
Avoid potential use-after-free condition under memory pressure. If the
kzalloc() fails, q_vector will be freed but left in the original
adapter->q_vector[v_idx] array position.
Affected configurations
• linux linux kernel (< 4.9.337)
• linux linux kernel (>= 4.10 < 4.14.303)
• linux linux kernel (>= 4.15 < 4.19.270)
