"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nrds: ib: Clear the sg list when mapping an MR fails\n\nrds_ib_map_frmr() stores the caller's scatterlist in the MR before DMA\nmapping and registration can fail. On failure, __rds_rdma_map() unpins\nthe pages and frees the scatterlist, but rds_ib_free_frmr() can still\nreturn the MR to the pool with the stale pointer set.\n\nThis leaves the pool with a dangling scatterlist and can lead to local\nprivilege escalation. KASAN detects the resulting use-after-free when the\nMR is later torn down:\n\nBUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __rds_ib_teardown_mr\nRead of size 8\n\nCall Trace:\n __rds_ib_teardown_mr\n rds_ib_unreg_frmr\n rds_ib_flush_mr_pool\n rds_ib_flush_mrs\n rds_free_mr\n rds_setsockopt\n\nStore the scatterlist in the MR only after DMA mapping succeeds. If DMA\nmapping fails, return directly while the MR fields remain clear; the caller\nkeeps ownership of the scatterlist and its pinned pages. If a later\nregistration step fails, unmap the scatterlist and clear the MR fields\nbefore returning."

"value": "AV:L - The attacker reaches patched rds_ib_map_frmr() through sendmsg() with a local RDS_CMSG_RDMA_MAP control message; no RDS packet field from a remote peer supplies the scatterlist or faulty ownership state.\nAC:L - On HNS hardware, the attacker can start an outgoing RDS connection and retry sendmsg() while its QP is RESET/INIT/RTR; check_send_valid() makes hns_roce_v2_post_send() return -EINVAL to rds_ib_post_reg_frmr(), creating the required failure.\nPR:L - rds_create(), rds_bind(), and rds_sendmsg() impose no capability or authentication check, and __rds_rdma_map() accepts an unprivileged process whenever can_do_mlock() sees a nonzero RLIMIT_MEMLOCK; RDS/IB merely requires the host's initial network namespace.\nUI:N - The attacking process performs both RDS_CMSG_RDMA_MAP and the zero-cookie setsockopt(SOL_RDS, RDS_FREE_MR) that calls rds_ib_flush_mrs(); no victim action is required.\nS:U - The stale ibmr->sg is consumed by __rds_ib_teardown_mr() within the host kernel, so exploitation elevates authority inside that same kernel rather than crossing a VM, IOMMU, or other security boundary.\nC:H - __rds_ib_teardown_mr() obtains page pointers with sg_page() from a freed, reclaimable scatterlist; attacker-controlled reclamation and the subsequent invalid free can enable kernel-memory compromise and disclosure.\nI:H - Teardown passes page pointers taken from the stale scatterlist to unpin_user_pages_dirty_lock() and then kfree()s the already-freed or reallocated array, enabling page-refcount and heap corruption usable for arbitrary writes or control-flow takeover.\nA:H - The observed slab use-after-free occurs in __rds_ib_teardown_mr(); dereferencing an invalid sg_page(), unpinning the resulting bogus page, or freeing the dangling scatterlist can produce a kernel oops or panic."
