"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet/smc: stop killed, freed and out_of_sync sharing a byte\n\nThe three connection state flags are single-bit bitfields, so they occupy\none byte of struct smc_connection and every store to one is a\nread-modify-write of the other two:\n\n u8 killed : 1;\n u8 freed : 1;\n u8 out_of_sync : 1;\n\nThey are not written under a common lock. smc_cdc_msg_validate() sets\nout_of_sync from the receive tasklet, while smc_conn_kill() sets killed\nfrom process context under lock_sock(), and the receive path does not defer\nto the backlog when the socket is owned -- smc_cdc_msg_recv() takes only\nbh_lock_sock().\n\nGive each flag its own byte so a store no longer touches its neighbours.\nAll readers test them as booleans and are unchanged. struct smc_connection\ngrows by two bytes."

"value": "AV:N - smc_cdc_msg_validate() runs from the SMC-R CDC receive tasklet on RDMA completions, and teardown is driven by CLC DECLINE (FIRST_CONTACT) or LLC DELETE_LINK_ALL from the same peer. SMC-Rv2 is RoCEv2 over UDP/4791 (IP-routable) with the CLC handshake on plain TCP, so a remote host that can reach an AF_SMC listener hits the path.\nAC:L - The attacker controls both sides of the race: it sends CDC failover_validation messages that store out_of_sync from the receive tasklet (no sock lock) while concurrently forcing smc_conn_kill()/smc_conn_free() via CLC decline, CDC close/abort, or LLC link-delete, and can retry across many connections in the same link group.\nPR:N - SMC has no peer authentication. Completing the CLC handshake to a listening AF_SMC/IPPROTO_SMC socket and sending CDC/CLC/LLC messages requires no credentials, capabilities, or local account, matching other SMC remote bugs.\nUI:N - CDC is processed in a softirq tasklet from the RDMA completion queue and CLC decline is handled in the handshake worker; no local user or application action is required beyond the already-listening SMC server.\nS:U - The corrupted flags and resulting UAF stay inside kernel objects (smc_connection, smc_sock, smc_link_group) in the same security authority; no VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary is crossed.\nC:H - A lost killed/freed/out_of_sync bit from the shared-byte RMW lets CDC continue after unregister or lets smc_conn_free() run twice (duplicate smc_lgr_put), a use-after-free of the socket and link group that can be reallocated to disclose kernel memory.\nI:H - The same UAF/double-free writes through a reused smc_sock (sk_err, sk_data_ready, queue_work on abort_work/close_work) and link-group refcounts, giving heap-spray primitives for arbitrary kernel write and control-flow hijack.\nA:H - Use-after-free and double-free of the connection and link group oops or panic in softirq/workqueue context (refcount underflow, as in related SMC UAFs), and the attacker can trigger it repeatedly without authentication."
