CVE-2024-36006

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mlxsw: spectrum_acl_tcam: Fix incorrect list API usage Both the function that migrates all the chunks within a region and the function that migrates all the entries within a chunk call list_first_entry() on the respective lists without checking that the lists are not empty. This is incorrect usage of the API, which leads to the following warning [1]. Fix by returning if the lists are empty as there is nothing to migrate in this case. [1] WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 6437 at drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlxsw/spectrum_acl_tcam.c:1266 mlxsw_sp_acl_tcam_vchunk_migrate_all+0x1f1/0> Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 6437 Comm: kworker/0:37 Not tainted 6.9.0-rc3-custom-00883-g94a65f079ef6 #39 Hardware name: Mellanox Technologies Ltd.
