Subject: [PATCH] net/sched: sch_dualpi2: Add missing skb check
Date: Tue, 28 Apr 2026 20:27:30 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260428145730.26375-1-ghandatmanas@gmail.com> (raw)
A packed is dequeued using the function `dequeue_packet()` but there is
no check to see if a packet is dequeued. The assignment is always
considered as true resulting in null-ptr-deref
Fixes: 8f9516daedd6 ("sched: Add enqueue/dequeue of dualpi2 qdisc")
