CVE-2026-97570

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bnxt_en: Bound SW TPA IDs to prevent crashes FW supports up to 1024 concurrent TPAs, so the FW TPA ID is in the range 0..1023 (see commit ec4d8e7cf024 ("bnxt_en: Add TPA ID mapping logic for 57500 chips.")). bnxt_alloc_agg_idx is intended to wrap the FW ID down to a software ID which is used to index rxr->rx_tpa, and to generate a mapping between FW IDs and the wrapped software ID. On a 57608 with firmware version 233, the firmware advertises 32 concurrent TPAs. As of the commit under fixes, bp->max_tpa on this NIC is set to 32. If the software ID from bnxt_alloc_agg_idx is above 31, this results in an invalid address being loaded on this line: tpa_info = &rxr->rx_tpa[agg_id]; because rx_tpa is allocated with only bp->max_tpa (32) entries. Writes to tpa_info later in the code are out of bounds. This bug results in a crash at boot: Oops: general protection fault, kernel NULL pointer dereference 0x8: 0000 [#1] SMP NOPTI RIP: 0010:bnxt_rx_pkt+0xc0/0x1560 RSP: 0018:ffffc900009b8c78 EFLAGS: 00010246 RAX: 0000000000000000 RBX: 0000000000000048 RCX: 0000000206682516 RDX: ffffc900009b8db4 RSI: 0000000000000000 RDI: 01fffff
