CVE-2022-50002
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: LAG, fix logic over MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY
Only set MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY if both netdevices are registered. Doing so guarantees that both ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P0].dev and ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P1].dev have valid pointers when MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY is set.
The core issue is asymmetry in setting MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY and clearing it. Setting it is done wrongly when both ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P0].dev and ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P1].dev are set; clearing it is done right when either of ldev->pf[i].netdev is cleared.
Consider the following scenario: 1. PF0 loads and sets ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P0].dev to a valid pointer 2.

PF1 loads and sets both ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P1].dev and ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P1].netdev with valid pointers. This results in MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY is set. 3. PF0 is unloaded before setting dev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P0].netdev. MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY remains set.
Further execution of mlx5_do_bond() will result in null pointer dereference when calling mlx5_lag_is_multipath()
This patch fixes the following call trace actually encountered:

"value": "En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: net/mlx5: LAG, corregir la lógica sobre MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY Solo establezca MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY si ambos dispositivos de red están registrados. Hacerlo garantiza que tanto ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P0].dev como ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P1].dev tengan punteros válidos cuando MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY esté establecido. El problema principal es la asimetría en la configuración de MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY y su borrado. La configuración se realiza incorrectamente cuando tanto ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P0].dev como ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P1].dev están establecidos; Se borra correctamente cuando se borra ldev->pf[i].netdev. Considere el siguiente escenario: 1. PF0 carga y asigna un puntero válido a ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P0].dev. 2. PF1 carga y asigna punteros válidos a ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P1].dev y ldev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P1].netdev. Esto da como resultado que MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY se configure. 3. PF0 se descarga antes de asignar dev->pf[MLX5_LAG_P0].netdev. MLX5_LAG_FLAG_NDEVS_READY permanece configurado.
