Description

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

- 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. BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address:
