In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5e: SHAMPO, Fix incorrect page release
Under the following conditions:
1) No skb created yet
2) header_size == 0 (no SHAMPO header)
3) header_index + 1 % MLX5E_SHAMPO_WQ_HEADER_PER_PAGE == 0 (this is the
last page fragment of a SHAMPO header page)
a new skb is formed with a page that is NOT a SHAMPO header page (it
is a regular data page). Further down in the same function
(mlx5e_handle_rx_cqe_mpwrq_shampo()), a SHAMPO header page from
header_index is released. This is wrong and it leads to SHAMPO header
pages being released more than once.
