Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-03-11 18:31 – Updated: 2024-12-12 18:30In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/smc: fix illegal rmb_desc access in SMC-D connection dump
A crash was found when dumping SMC-D connections. It can be reproduced by following steps:
-
run nginx/wrk test: smc_run nginx smc_run wrk -t 16 -c 1000 -d -H 'Connection: Close'
-
continuously dump SMC-D connections in parallel: watch -n 1 'smcss -D'

It is possible that the connection is in process of being established when we dump it. Assumed that the connection has been registered in a link group by smc_conn_create() but the rmb_desc has not yet been initialized by smc_buf_create(), thus causing the illegal access to conn->rmb_desc. So fix it by checking before dump.
