Subject: [PATCH] net: bnxt: fix a potential use-after-free in bnxt_init_tc
Date: Mon,  4 Dec 2023 10:40:04 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20231204024004.8245-1-dinghao.liu@zju.edu.cn> (raw)

When flow_indr_dev_register() fails, bnxt_init_tc will free
bp->tc_info through kfree(). However, the caller function
bnxt_init_one() will ignore this failure and call
bnxt_shutdown_tc() on failure of bnxt_dl_register(), where
a use-after-free happens. Fix this issue by setting
bp->tc_info to NULL after kfree().

Fixes: 627c89d00fb9 ("bnxt_en: flow_offload: offload tunnel decap rules via indirect callbacks")
