In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mlxsw:
spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix warning during rehash As previously explained, the
rehash delayed work migrates filters from one region to another. This is
done by iterating over all chunks (all the filters with the same priority)
in the region and in each chunk iterating over all the filters. When the
work runs out of credits it stores the current chunk and entry as markers
in the per-work context so that it would know where to resume the migration
from the next time the work is scheduled. Upon error, the chunk marker is
reset to NULL, but without resetting the entry markers despite being
relative to it. This can result in migration being resumed from an entry
that does not belong to the chunk being migrated. In turn, this will
eventually lead to a chunk being iterated over as if it is an entry.
Because of how the two structures happen to be defined, this does not lead
to KASAN splats, but to warnings such as [1]. Fix by creating a helper that
resets all the markers and call it from all the places the currently only
reset the chunk marker. For good measures also call it when starting a
completely new rehash. Add a warning to avoid future cases. [1] WARNING:
