Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: ethernet: mtk_ppe: avoid NULL deref when gmac0 is disabled
If the gmac0 is disabled, the precheck for a valid ingress device will
cause a NULL pointer deref and crash the system. This happens because
eth->netdev[0] will be NULL but the code will directly try to access
netdev_ops.
Instead of just checking for the first net_device, it must be checked if
any of the mtk_eth net_devices is matching the netdev_ops of the ingress
device.
