Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: qce - fix error path in devm_qce_register_algs If ops->register_algs() fails, the error path repeatedly calls the same ops->unregister_algs() from the failed registration. Use the loop index to unregister the previously registered algorithms instead.
An error in the devm_qce_register_algs function's error handling path causes the system to repeatedly attempt to unregister algorithms incorrectly when a registration fails. This improper handling of resources could lead to system instability or a denial of service.
Red Hat severity: Moderate — CVSS 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H). Weakness: CWE-763.
Red Hat lists Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8; Red Hat Enterprise Linux 9 as not affected.
