CVE-2023-53272
Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ena: fix shift-out-of-bounds in exponential backoff
The ENA adapters on our instances occasionally reset. Once recently
logged a UBSAN failure to console in the process:
UBSAN: shift-out-of-bounds in build/linux/drivers/net/ethernet/amazon/ena/ena_com.c:540:13
shift exponent 32 is too large for 32-bit type 'unsigned int'
CPU: 28 PID: 70012 Comm: kworker/u72:2 Kdump: loaded not tainted 5.15.117
Hardware name: Amazon EC2 c5d.9xlarge/, BIOS 1.0 10/16/2017

Apparently, the reset delays are getting so large they can trigger a
UBSAN panic.
Looking at the code, the current timeout is capped at 5000us. Using a
base value of 100us, the current code will overflow after (1<<29). Even
at values before 32, this function wraps around, perhaps
unintentionally.
Cap the value of the exponent used for this backoff at (1<<16) which is
larger than currently necessary, but large enough to support bigger
values in the future.
