Siemens SIMATIC S7-1500 TM MFP Use After Free (CVE-2024-39502)

medium Tenable OT Security Plugin ID 503426

Synopsis

The remote OT asset is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

ionic: use after netif_napi_del(). When queues are started, netif_napi_add() and napi_enable() are called. If there are 4 queues and only 3 queues are used for the current configuration, only 3 queues' napi should be registered and enabled. The ionic_qcq_enable() checks whether the .poll pointer is not NULL for enabling only the using queue' napi. Unused queues' napi will not be registered by netif_napi_add(), so the .poll pointer indicates NULL. But it couldn't distinguish whether the napi was unregistered or not because netif_napi_del() doesn't reset the .poll pointer to NULL. So, ionic_qcq_enable() calls napi_enable() for the queue, which was unregistered by netif_napi_del().

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
