It was discovered that the Linux kernel algif_aead module did not properly
handle in-place cryptographic operations. This flaw is known as Copy Fail.
A local attacker could use this to escalate privileges, or possibly escape

## CVE-2026-23166 :
Linux Kernel vulnerability analysis and mitigation
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ice: Fix NULL pointer dereference in ice_vsi_set_napi_queues
Add NULL pointer checks in ice_vsi_set_napi_queues() to prevent crashes
during resume from suspend when rings[q_idx]->q_vector is NULL.
Tested adaptor:
60:00.0 Ethernet controller [0200]: Intel Corporation Ethernet Controller E810-XXV for SFP [8086:159b] (rev 02)
Subsystem: Intel Corporation Ethernet Network Adapter E810-XXV-2 [8086:4003]
SR-IOV state: both disabled and enabled can reproduce this issue.
kernel version: v6.18
Reproduce steps:
Boot up and execute suspend like systemctl suspend or rtcwake.
Log:
[ 231.443607] BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000040
