CVE-2021-47141: Linux Kernel

Medium severity, CVSS 5.5. EPSS: 0.2% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: gve: Add NULL pointer checks when freeing irqs. When freeing notification blocks, we index priv->msix_vectors. If we failed to allocate priv->msix_vectors (see abort_with_msix_vectors) this could lead to a NULL pointer dereference if the driver is unloaded.

Affected products

• Linux Linux Kernel: from 5.3, before 5.4.124 (fixed in 5.4.124); from 5.5, before 5.10.42 (fixed in 5.10.42); from 5.11, before 5.12.9 (fixed in 5.12.9); version 5.13 only
