AI-suggested
A patch is available and should be applied by updating the Linux kernel to version 7.0.0-28.28 or later as provided by the vendor. After updating, a system reboot is required. No additional mitigation is necessary as the issue is fixed in these versions.
Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's Microsoft Azure Network Adapter (MANA) driver was resolved by changing debugfs directory naming to use pci_name(), which returns a unique and valid PCI device identifier. The previous method used pci_slot_name() and hardcoded values, which could cause NULL pointer dereferences and directory naming conflicts. This issue was fixed in Linux kernel versions 7.0.0-28.28 and later.
