In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
PCI: endpoint: Fix swapped parameters in pci_{primary/secondary}_epc_epf_unlink() functions
struct configfs_item_operations callbacks are defined like the following:
int (*allow_link)(struct config_item *src, struct config_item *target);
void (*drop_link)(struct config_item *src, struct config_item *target);
While pci_primary_epc_epf_link() and pci_secondary_epc_epf_link() specify
the parameters in the correct order, pci_primary_epc_epf_unlink() and
pci_secondary_epc_epf_unlink() specify the parameters in the wrong order,
leading to the below kernel crash when using the unlink command in
configfs:
Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 0000000300000857

[mani: cced stable, changed commit message as per https://lore.kernel.org/linux-pci/aV9joi3jF1R6ca02@ryzen]
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's PCI endpoint functionality. Incorrect parameter handling in the pci_primary_epc_epf_unlink() and pci_secondary_epc_epf_unlink() functions allows a local user to trigger a kernel crash. This occurs when the unlink command is used in configfs, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) for the affected system.
