Message-ID: <2026021422-CVE-2026-23173-4a20@gregkh> Date: Sat, 14 Feb 2026 17:04:39 +0100 From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...uxfoundation.org> To: linux-cve-announce@...r.kernel.org Cc: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...nel.org> Subject: CVE-2026-23173: net/mlx5e: TC, delete flows only for existing peers From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <gregkh@...nel.org> Description =========== In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/mlx5e: TC, delete flows only for existing peers When deleting TC steering flows, iterate only over actual devcom peers instead of assuming all possible ports exist. This avoids touching non-existent peers and ensures cleanup is limited to devices the driver is currently connected to.

Affected files ============== The file(s) affected by this issue are: drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/en_tc.c 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: https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/62e1d8920f6920543f4b095a65fb964448c9901d https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2652e2f1253c53f9a3ce84cc972568b32c892734 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/fdf8437016f578f18b160c6e14f13ab96bfbc3ba https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f67666938ae626cbda63fbf5176b3583c07e7124
