Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel has been resolved, related to the bnxt en driver. The issue occurs when the
bnxt init chip() function fails, triggering a WARN ON() in flush work() because cancel work sync() is called on uninitialized dim work. The driver relies on the BNXT STATE NAPI DISABLED bit to check if dim work has been cancelled, but this bit is not set during the bnxt open() path, causing the error. The fix involves setting BNXT STATE NAPI DISABLED during initialization, which will be cleared when NAPI is enabled and dim work is initialized.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
