After that mlx4_en_alloc_resources() is called and there is a dereference of &tmp->tx_cq[t][i] in mlx4_en_alloc_resources(), which could lead to a use after free problem on failure of mlx4_en_copy_priv(). Fix this bug by adding a check of mlx4_en_copy_priv() This bug was found by a static analyzer. The analysis employs differential checking to identify inconsistent security operations (e.g., checks or kfrees) between two code paths and confirms that the inconsistent operations are not recovered in the current function or the callers, so they constitute bugs. Note that, as a bug found by static analysis, it can be a false positive or hard to trigger. Multiple researchers have cross-reviewed the bug. Builds with CONFIG_MLX4_EN=m show no new warnings, and our static analyzer no longer warns about this code. The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2021-47541 to this issue.

Affected files ============== The file(s) affected by this issue are: drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx4/en_netdev.c Mitigation ========== The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this issue can be found at these commits: https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/be12572c5ddc8ad7453bada4eec8fa46967dc757 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/676dc7d9b15bf8733233a2db1ec3f9091ab34275 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e461a9816a1ac5b4aeb61621b817225b61e46a68 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f1d43efa59f1edd3e7eca0e94559b4c6b1cd4e2b https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/75917372eef0dbfb290ae45474314d35f97aea18 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/addad7643142f500080417dd7272f49b7a185570
