{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2023-52782","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  net/mlx5e: Track xmit submission to PTP WQ after populating metadata map  Ensure the skb is available in metadata mapping to skbs before tracking the metadata index for detecting undelivered CQEs. If the metadata index is put in the tracking list before putting the skb in the map, the metadata index might be used for detecting undelivered CQEs before the relevant skb is available in the map, which can lead to a null-ptr-deref.
