"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nRDMA/hfi1: Propagate sdma_txinit_ahg() errors\n\nset_txreq_header_ahg() ignores the return value of sdma_txinit_ahg().\n\nIf sdma_txinit_ahg() fails, it returns before initializing tx->txreq.\nHowever, set_txreq_header_ahg() ignores the error and returns the AHG\nchange count, causing the caller to continue processing the request as\nthough initialization had succeeded.\n\nPropagate sdma_txinit_ahg() failures to the caller and abort request\nprocessing when initialization fails.\n\nFound by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE."

"value": "AV:L - The attacker-controlled bytes are the sdma_req_info/header/iovecs copy_from_user()'d in hfi1_user_sdma_process_request(), reached only from hfi1_write_iter() on the hfi1 user cdev. A remote Omni-Path peer does not supply that request; kernel verbs already check sdma_txinit_ahg() and are not this bug.\nAC:L - On the AHG path (npkts>1 and HFI1_CAP_IS_USET(SDMA_AHG) so ahg_idx>=0), the attacker sets a later packet's datalen to 0 or info.fragsize>MAX_SDMA_PKT_SIZE so sdma_txinit_ahg() returns -ENODATA/-EMSGSIZE. set_txreq_header_ahg() still returns the AHG index count, and user_sdma_send_pkts() continues with no race.\nPR:L - hfi1_user_devnode() creates /dev/hfi1_N with mode 0666, and hfi1_file_open()/assign_ctxt() perform no capability checks, so an ordinary unprivileged local user can assign a context and writev() the crafted SDMA request.\nUI:N - Exploitation is the attacker's own open, HFI1_IOCTL_ASSIGN_CTXT, and writev() of a multi-packet user SDMA request; no other user must mount media, open a file, or otherwise interact.\nS:U - The uninitialized user_sdma_txreq.txreq is consumed by make_tx_sdma_desc() and submit_tx() inside the host hfi1 driver; impact is host-kernel memory/DMA corruption, not a guest-to-host, IOMMU, or other authority-boundary escape.\nC:H - user_sdma_send_pkts() still calls hfi1_add_pages_to_sdma_packet() after the failed sdma_txinit_ahg(), and make_tx_sdma_desc() reads/writes through uninitialized tx->descp. A recycled txreq_cache object whose extended descp was kfree'd in __sdma_txclean() is a use-after-free, enabling kernel info disclosure.\nI:H - make_tx_sdma_desc() writes DMA address and length through that uninitialized/dangling descp, and submit_tx() copies those descriptors into the SDMA ring. That is an arbitrary kernel write and hardware DMA of attacker-influenced descriptors, enabling control-flow hijack.\nA:H - submit_tx() always loads descp->qw[0] even when num_desc is 0, so a NULL descp from an uninitialized txreq is a kernel NULL-deref oops; garbage num_desc/descriptors also crash or halt the SDMA engine."
