Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> be2net: pass wrb_params in case of OS2BMC<br /> <br /> be_insert_vlan_in_pkt() is called with the wrb_params argument being NULL<br /> at be_send_pkt_to_bmc() call site.  This may lead to dereferencing a NULL<br /> pointer when processing a workaround for specific packet, as commit<br /> bc0c3405abbb ("be2net: fix a Tx stall bug caused by a specific ipv6<br /> packet") states.<br /> <br /> The correct way would be to pass the wrb_params from be_xmit().
