*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
ixgbevf: add missing negotiate_features op to Hyper-V ops table<br />
<br />
Commit a7075f501bd3 ("ixgbevf: fix mailbox API compatibility by<br />
negotiating supported features") added the .negotiate_features callback<br />
to ixgbe_mac_operations and populated it in ixgbevf_mac_ops, but forgot<br />
to add it to ixgbevf_hv_mac_ops. This leaves the function pointer NULL<br />
on Hyper-V VMs.<br />
<br />
During probe, ixgbevf_negotiate_api() calls ixgbevf_set_features(),<br />
which unconditionally dereferences hw->mac.ops.negotiate_features().<br />
On Hyper-V this results in a NULL pointer dereference:<br />
<br />
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000<br />
[...]<br />
Hardware name: Microsoft Corporation Virtual Machine/Virtual Machine [...]<br />
Workqueue: events work_for_cpu_fn<br />
RIP: 0010:0x0<br />
[...]<br />
Call Trace:<br />

[...]<br />
<br />
Add ixgbevf_hv_negotiate_features_vf() that returns -EOPNOTSUPP and<br />
wire it into ixgbevf_hv_mac_ops. The caller already handles -EOPNOTSUPP<br />
gracefully.
