Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: Fix deinitializing VF in error path
If ice_ena_vfs() fails after calling ice_create_vf_entries(), it frees
all VFs without removing them from snapshot PF-VF mailbox list, leading
to list corruption.
Reproducer:
devlink dev eswitch set $PF1_PCI mode switchdev
ip l s $PF1 up
ip l s $PF1 promisc on
sleep 1
echo 1 > /sys/class/net/$PF1/device/sriov_numvfs
sleep 1
echo 1 > /sys/class/net/$PF1/device/sriov_numvfs
Trace (minimized):
list_add corruption. next->prev should be prev (ffff8882e241c6f0), but was 0000000000000000. (next=ffff888455da1330).
kernel BUG at lib/list_debug.c:29!

Sometimes a KASAN report can be seen instead with a similar stack trace:
BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in __list_add_valid_or_report+0xf1/0x100
VFs are added to this list in ice_mbx_init_vf_info(), but only removed
in ice_free_vfs(). Move the removing to ice_free_vf_entries(), which is
also being called in other places where VFs are being removed (including
ice_free_vfs() itself).
