Details

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) headersize == 0 (no SHAMPO header) 3) headerindex + 1 % MLX5ESHAMPOWQHEADERPER_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 (mlx5ehandlerxcqempwrqshampo()), a SHAMPO header page from headerindex is released. This is wrong and it leads to SHAMPO header pages being released more than once.
