Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's PCI endpoint functionality. Incorrect parameter handling in the pci_primary_epc_epf_unlink() and pci_secondary_epc_epf_unlink() functions allows a local user to trigger a kernel crash. This occurs when the unlink command is used in configfs, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS) for the affected system.
