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

Description A hang may be observed when a system with E810 and existing Virtual Functions (VFs) is rebooted. This issue occurs because the iavf remove() function expects the VF to be in one of the states IAVF RUNNING, IAVF DOWN, or IAVF INIT FAILED, but if the adapter is already in the IAVF REMOVE state, it sleeps forever. The problem arises when iavf shutdown() is invoked before iavf remove(), causing the system to hang indefinitely.

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