unauthenticated malicious actor to send a set of crafted TCP packages when
using NVMe over TCP, leading the NVMe driver to a NULL pointer dereference
in the NVMe driver and causing kernel panic and a denial of service.

fixes for CVE-2023-6536, CVE-2023-6535, and CVE-2023-6356 are all the same. the differences between the CVEs are that they were reported against different methods. NULL pointer dereference in nvmet_tcp_build_iovec USN-6765-1 for linux-oem-6.5 wrongly stated that this CVE was fixed in version 6.5.0-1022.23. The mentioned notice was revoked and the state of the fix for linux-oem-6.5 was recovered to the previous state. |
