      <title>CVE-2026-43445 — e1000/e1000e: Fix leak in DMA error cleanup</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-43445</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;e1000/e1000e: Fix leak in DMA error cleanup&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If an error is encountered while mapping TX buffers, the driver should
unmap any buffers already mapped for that skb.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Because count is incremented after a successful mapping, it will always
match the correct number of unmappings needed when dma_error is reached.
Decrementing count before the while loop in dma_error causes an
off-by-one error. If any mapping was successful before an unsuccessful
mapping, exactly one DMA mapping would leak.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In these commits, a faulty while condition caused an infinite loop in
dma_error:
Commit 03b1320dfcee (&amp;#34;e1000e: remove use of skb_dma_map from e1000e
driver&amp;#34;)
Commit 602c0554d7b0 (&amp;#34;e1000: remove use of skb_dma_map from e1000 driver&amp;#34;)&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Commit c1fa347f20f1 (&amp;#34;e1000/e1000e/igb/igbvf/ixgb/ixgbe: Fix tests of
unsigned in *_tx_map()&amp;#34;) fixed the infinite loop, but introduced the
off-by-one error.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This issue may still exist in the igbvf driver, but I did not address it
in this patch.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
