Amendment

The AlmaLinux security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for AlmaLinux:10.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libperf package and not the libperf package as distributed by AlmaLinux.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

ice: ice_adapter: release xa entry on adapter allocation failure

When ice_adapter_new() fails, the reserved XArray entry created by xa_insert() is not released. This causes subsequent insertions at the same index to return -EBUSY, potentially leading to NULL pointer dereferences.

Reorder the operations as suggested by Przemek Kitszel:

  1. Check if adapter already exists (xa_load)
  2. Reserve the XArray slot (xa_reserve)
  3. Allocate the adapter (ice_adapter_new)
  4. Store the adapter (xa_store)
