Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue is related to the net/mlx5 component of the Linux kernel, where ingress ACL is not created when needed, potentially leading to a panic when creating a drop rule for active-backup lag mode. The vulnerability is associated with incorrect handling of input data. If the ingress ACL is not created, it may cause a panic, while always creating it could result in about 5% performance degradation. The fix involves creating the ingress ACL when necessary.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
