Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
net/mlx5e: Fix crash caused by calling __xfrm_state_delete() twice<br />
<br />
The km.state is not checked in driver&#39;s delayed work. When<br />
xfrm_state_check_expire() is called, the state can be reset to<br />
XFRM_STATE_EXPIRED, even if it is XFRM_STATE_DEAD already. This<br />
happens when xfrm state is deleted, but not freed yet. As<br />
__xfrm_state_delete() is called again in xfrm timer, the following<br />
crash occurs.<br />
<br />
To fix this issue, skip xfrm_state_check_expire() if km.state is not<br />
XFRM_STATE_VALID.<br />
<br />
Oops: general protection fault, probably for non-canonical address 0xdead000000000108: 0000 [#1] SMP<br />
