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().
