In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
IB/hfi1: Correctly move list in sc_disable()
Commit 13bac861952a ("IB/hfi1: Fix abba locking issue with sc_disable()")
incorrectly tries to move a list from one list head to another. The
result is a kernel crash.
The crash is triggered when a link goes down and there are waiters for a
send to complete. The following signature is seen:
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000030
[...]
