CVE-2021-47215
Last modified
CVE-2021-47215 is a medium-severity vulnerability rated 5.5/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/mlx5e: kTLS, Fix crash in RX resync flow For the TLS RX resync flow, we maintain a list of TLS contexts that require some attention, to communicate their resync information to the HW. Here we fix list corruptions, by protecting the entries against movements coming from resync_handle_seq_match(), until their resync handling in napi is fully completed.. EPSS estimates a 0.20% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
