CVE-2026-74717

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's net/mlx5 component. This vulnerability occurs because the firmware tracer fwtracer does not properly handle error return values, specifically when ERRPTR is returned instead of NULL. An attacker could potentially trigger a kernel panic by exploiting this...

SUSE CVE-2026-74717

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/mlx5: fwtracer, return NULL on create error Tracer creation can fail by returning either NULL or ERRPTR. The return value is stored without a check on the device, and users treat ERRPTR and NULL the same way. This also causes...

CVE-2026-74717

A denial-of-service vulnerability in the Linux kernel's net/mlx5 firmware tracer (fw_tracer). The tracer creation function can return either NULL or ERR_PTR on failure, but the core dump logic (mlx5_fw_tracer_trigger_core_dump_general) does not check for ERR_PTR and dereferences it, leading to a ...
