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

net/mlx5: Clear port select structure when fail to create

Clear the port select structure on error so no stale values left after
definers are destroyed. That’s because the mlx5_lag_destroy_definers()
always try to destroy all lag definers in the tt_map, so in the flow
below lag definers get double-destroyed and cause kernel crash:

mlx5_lag_port_sel_create()

mlx5_lag_create_definers()
  mlx5_lag_create_definer()     <- Failed on tt 1
    mlx5_lag_destroy_definers() <- definers[tt=0] gets destroyed

mlx5_lag_port_sel_create()

mlx5_lag_create_definers()
  mlx5_lag_create_definer()     <- Failed on tt 0
    mlx5_lag_destroy_definers() <- definers[tt=0] gets double-destroyed
