FKIE_CVE-2026-92488

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-09-17 17:17 - Updated: 2026-09-18 18:18

Severity

7.0 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H

Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/erdma: complete object teardown when the destroy command fails erdma_destroy_qp(), erdma_destroy_cq(), erdma_dereg_mr(), and erdma_destroy_ah() returned early when erdma_post_cmd_wait() failed, leaking the queue buffers, MTTs, doorbells and the STAG, QPN, CQN and AHN identifiers. A command timeout clears ERDMA_CMDQ_STATE_OK_BIT and permanently disables the command queue, so no retry can succeed; the RDMA core keeps the object after a failed destructor and forced uverbs cleanup then nulls the pointers, making the resources unreachable. Warn on failure but release every software-owned resource and return success, since during terminal destruction the hardware command result is only diagnostic.

That wait returns -ETIME after ERDMA_CMDQ_TIMEOUT_MS and then clears ERDMA_CMDQ_STATE_OK_BIT, or -EIO on a hardware syndrome; the SQE is built by the driver from the kernel-owned QPN/CQN/lkey/AHN, so the attacker cannot force that failure.\nPR:L - ib_uverbs_open() only checks rdma_dev_access_netns() and uverbs_devnode() sets mode 0666. erdma_alloc_ucontext() requires CAP_SYS_RAWIO only when ERDMA_DEV_CAP_FLAGS_EXTEND_DB is unset; on extend-doorbell hardware an unprivileged local user can GET_CONTEXT, CREATE_QP/CQ and then hit the failing destructors.\nUI:N - The attacker issues DESTROY_* on their own uverbs fd or closes it so ib_uverbs_close() runs uverbs_destroy_ufile_hw(); no other user must mount a filesystem, open a file, or otherwise cooperate.\nS:U - A leftover erdma_cq/erdma_qp in cq_xa/qp_xa and a UAF of the associated ib_ucq_object stay inside the host kernel; this is not a KVM/Xen guest-to-host escape or an IOMMU/DMA boundary bypass.\nC:H - On command failure erdma_destroy_cq() returns before xa_erase(\u0026dev-\u003ecq_xa). __uverbs_cleanup_ufile(RDMA_REMOVE_DRIVER_FAILURE) then nulls uobj-\u003eobject without ib_destroy_cq_user and frees the ib_ucq_object, so erdma_ceq_completion_handler() -\u003e ib_uverbs_comp_handler() reads the freed cq-\u003euobject.\nI:H - The same ib_uverbs_comp_handler() then list_add_tail()s onto the freed ev_queue-\u003eevent_list and ib_ucq_object.comp_list after DRIVER_FAILURE dropped the uobject, a use-after-free write into slab memory that can corrupt a reused object or freelist metadata.\nA:H - The CEQ tasklet UAF in ib_uverbs_comp_handler() can oops; independently, returning before erdma_free_idx()/put_mtt_entries()/dma_free_coherent() leaks STAG/QPN/CQN/AHN IDs and DMA queue buffers, and a cmdq timeout permanently disables further commands."

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
