In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/siw: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in header processing
If siw_get_hdr() returns -EINVAL before set_rx_fpdu_context(),
qp->rx_fpdu can be NULL. The error path in siw_tcp_rx_data()
dereferences qp->rx_fpdu->more_ddp_segs without checking, which
may lead to a NULL pointer deref. Only check more_ddp_segs when
rx_fpdu is present.

RDMA/siw: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in header processing
If siw_get
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/siw: Fix potential NULL pointer dereference in header processing
If siw_get_hdr() returns -EINVAL before set_rx_fpdu_context(),
qp->rx_fpdu can be NULL. The error path in siw_tcp_rx_data()
dereferences qp->rx_fpdu->more_ddp_segs without checking, which
may lead to a NULL pointer deref. Only check more_ddp_segs when
rx_fpdu is present.
