CVE-2024-49953
Mellanox Technologies Linux Kernel DOA (Double __xfrm_state_delete) Vulnerability
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/mlx5e: Fix crash caused by calling __xfrm_state_delete() twice The km.state is not checked in driver's delayed work. When xfrm_state_check_expire() is called, the state can be reset to XFRM_STATE_EXPIRED, even if it is XFRM_STATE_DEAD already. This happens when xfrm state is deleted, but not freed yet. As __xfrm_state_delete() is called again in xfrm timer, the following crash occurs. To fix this issue, skip xfrm_state_check_expire() if km.state is not XFRM_STATE_VALID.
