Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ionic: fix kernel panic in XDP_TX action In the XDP_TX path, ionic driver sends a packet to the TX path with rx page and corresponding dma address. After tx is done, ionic_tx_clean() frees that page. But RX ring buffer isn't reset to NULL. So, it uses a freed page, which causes kernel panic. BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffff8881576c110c PGD 773801067 P4D 773801067 PUD 87f086067 PMD 87efca067 PTE 800ffffea893e060 Oops: Oops: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP DEBUG_PAGEALLOC KASAN NOPTI CPU: 1 PID: 25 Comm: ksoftirqd/1 Not tainted 6.9.0+ #11 Hardware name: ASUS System Product Name/PRIME Z690-P D4, BIOS 0603 11/01/2021 RIP: 0010:bpf_prog_f0b8caeac1068a55_balancer_ingress+0x3b/0x44f Code: 00 53 41 55 41 56 41 57 b8 01
