Original description The description as published by the source.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

smb: client: fix oops due to unset link speed

It isn't guaranteed that NETWORK_INTERFACE_INFO::LinkSpeed will always
be set by the server, so the client must handle any values and then
prevent oopses like below from happening:
