Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2026-10-06 09:18 - Updated: 2026-10-07 07:17
Severity
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/ucma: Serialize join and leave on copy_to_user failure
rdma_join_multicast() queues RoCE work that later reads the ucma_multicast
through event->param.ud.private_data, then list_add()s the CMA multicast
at the head of id_priv->mc_list. rdma_leave_multicast() matches only by
sockaddr and destroys the first hit.
ucma_process_join() used to drop ctx->mutex after a successful join and
retake it only if copy_to_user() failed. Two concurrent JOIN_MCAST calls
with the same address can therefore insert a second CMA entry before the
first thread's leave. leave then cancels the newer work and the older
worker still dereferences the ucma_multicast that the first thread frees.
Keep ctx->mutex held from rdma_join_multicast() through copy_to_user() and,
on -EFAULT, through rdma_leave_multicast() so leave cannot miss this join.
Do not leave if join itself failed: that path never published this address
on mc_list, and a leave-by-addr would destroy an earlier successful join.
