Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ice: add NULL check in eswitch lag check The function ice_lag_is_switchdev_running() is being called from outside of the LAG event handler code. This results in the lag->upper_netdev being NULL sometimes. To avoid a NULL-pointer dereference, there needs to be a check before it is dereferenced.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 6.6.1 < 6.6.100) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.12.40) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.13 < 6.15.8) • linux linux kernel 6.6 • linux linux kernel 6.16
