What it is

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

smb: client: fix oops due to unset link speed

It isn't guaranteed that NETWORK_INTERFACE_INFO::LinkSpeed will always

be set by the server, so the client must handle any values and then

prevent oopses like below from happening:

Oops: divide error: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP KASAN NOPTI

CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 1323 Comm: cat Not tainted 6.13.0-rc7 #2

Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS 1.16.3-3.fc41

by default when link speed is unset.
