NVD Description

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

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

net: do not pass flow_id to set_rps_cpu()

Blamed commit made the assumption that the RPS table for each receive queue would have the same size, and that it would not change.

Compute flow_id in set_rps_cpu(), do not assume we can use the value computed by get_rps_cpu(). Otherwise we risk out-of-bound access and/or crashes.
