"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nnet: rds: fix uninitialized trans dereference in CM event handler\n\nrds_rdma_cm_event_handler_cmn() assigns trans only when the RDMA\ndevice is an InfiniBand CA (RDMA_NODE_IB_CA). On any other device\ntype, e.g. an iWARP RNIC such as siw, trans stays uninitialized, but\nthe event switch dereferences it: unconditionally in the\nRDMA_CM_EVENT_CONNECT_REQUEST case via trans->cm_handle_connect(),\nand (with a connection context) in the ROUTE_RESOLVED and\nESTABLISHED cases.\n\nAn RDS listener on an iWARP device therefore crashes the kernel as\nsoon as a connect request arrives: with CONFIG_INIT_STACK_ALL_ZERO\nthe wild load becomes a NULL dereference at offset 0xa0\n(&trans->cm_handle_connect) in the iw_cm_wq workqueue.\n\nGCC masks the bug in default builds by folding the uninitialized\nload into &rds_ib_transport; Clang-built kernels take the real\nuninitialized path and oops.\n\nThe active side can land on a non-IB device too: the id that\nrds_ib_conn_path_connect() creates is not restricted to a node type,\nso rdma_resolve_addr() binds it to whichever device serves the local\naddress, and an iWARP RNIC on the same netdev qualifies. The crash\nthere is different: resolving a route on an iWARP id never fills in\ncm_id->route.path_rec, and the ROUTE_RESOLVED case writes\npath_rec[0].sl before it calls into the transport.\n\nThe iWARP transport was dropped long ago and IB is the only\ntransport left, so make that explicit: initialize trans to\n&rds_ib_transport at declaration, drop the conditional assignment,\nreject a connect request that arrives on a non-IB device, and drop a\nconnection whose address resolved to one instead of resolving a\nroute on it. The rejection is limited to RDMA_CM_EVENT_CONNECT_REQUEST\non purpose: a non-zero return from the handler makes rdma_cm destroy\nthe id the event was delivered on, which is right for the request's\nfreshly created id but would free a connection id that RDS still owns\nfor any other event. On the active side the id stays ic->i_cm_id and\nthe connection's shutdown destroys it, so that case returns 0.\n\n[achender: reject only on RDMA_CM_EVENT_CONNECT_REQUEST instead of\n bailing out for every event on a non-IB device, so that rdma_cm does\n not destroy connection ids RDS still tracks; drop a connection whose\n address resolved to a non-IB device before a route is resolved on it;\n changelog adjusted]"
