  "summary": "net: team: fix NULL pointer dereference in team_xmit during mode change",
  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: team: fix NULL pointer dereference in team_xmit during mode change\n\n__team_change_mode() clears team->ops with memset() before restoring\nsafe dummy handlers via team_adjust_ops(). A concurrent team_xmit()\nrunning under RCU on another CPU can read team->ops.transmit during\nthis window and call a NULL function pointer, crashing the kernel.\n\nThe race requires a mode change (CAP_NET_ADMIN) concurrent with\ntransmit on the team device.\n\n BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000\n Oops: 0010 [#1] SMP KASAN NOPTI\n RIP: 0010:0x0\n Call Trace:\n  team_xmit (drivers/net/team/team_core.c:1853)\n  dev_hard_start_xmit (net/core/dev.c:3904)\n  __dev_queue_xmit (net/core/dev.c:4871)\n  packet_sendmsg (net/packet/af_packet.c:3109)\n  __sys_sendto (net/socket.c:2265)\n\nThe original code assumed that no ports means no traffic, so mode\nchanges could freely memset()/memcpy() the ops.  AF_PACKET with\nforced carrier breaks that assumption.\n\nPrevent the race instead of making it safe: replace memset()/memcpy()\nwith per-field updates that never touch transmit or receive.  Those\ntwo handlers are managed solely by team_adjust_ops(), which already\ninstalls dummies when tx_en_port_count == 0 (always true during mode\nchange since no ports are present).  WRITE_ONCE/READ_ONCE prevent\nstore/load tearing on the handler pointers.\n\nsynchronize_net() before exit_op() drains in-flight readers that may\nstill reference old mode state from before port removal switched the\nhandlers to dummies.",
