| Subject: CVE-2022-49492: nvme-pci: fix a NULL pointer dereference in nvme_alloc_admin_tags |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| nvme-pci: fix a NULL pointer dereference in nvme_alloc_admin_tags |
| |
| In nvme_alloc_admin_tags, the admin_q can be set to an error (typically |
| -ENOMEM) if the blk_mq_init_queue call fails to set up the queue, which |
| is checked immediately after the call. However, when we return the error |
| message up the stack, to nvme_reset_work the error takes us to |
| nvme_remove_dead_ctrl() |
| nvme_dev_disable() |
| nvme_suspend_queue(&dev->queues[0]). |
| |
| Here, we only check that the admin_q is non-NULL, rather than not |
| an error or NULL, and begin quiescing a queue that never existed, leading |
| to bad / NULL pointer dereference. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2022-49492 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
