Subject: [PATCH] ixgbe: validate E610 PFA TLV bounds
Date: Mon, 6 Jul 2026 17:25:00 +0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260706092500.79044-1-pengpeng@iscas.ac.cn> (raw)
ixgbe_get_pfa_module_tlv() walks E610 PFA TLV records stored in
EEPROM.
Stop parsing malformed TLVs whose header or declared value length would
exceed the PFA boundary.
