Siemens SIMATIC S7-1500 TM MFP Improper Input Validation (CVE-2026-53177)

medium Tenable OT Security Plugin ID 506463

Synopsis

The remote OT asset is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

bnxt_en: Fix NULL pointer dereference

PCIe errors detected by a Root Port or Downstream Port cause error recovery services to run on all subordinate devices regardless of administrative state.

The .error_detected() callback, bnxt_io_error_detected(), disables and synchronizes IRQs via bnxt_disable_int_sync(), which calls bnxt_cp_num_to_irq_num() to map completion rings to IRQs using bp->bnapi.

Since bp->bnapi is allocated on NIC open and freed on NIC close, PCIe error recovery on a closed NIC can dereference a NULL pointer.

Check if bp->bnapi is NULL before disabling and synchronizing IRQs.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
