In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/core: Fix potential use after free in ib_destroy_cq_user()
When accessing a CQ via the netlink path the only synchronization mechanism for the said CQ is rdma_restrack_get(). Currently, rdma_restrack_del() is invoked at the end of ib_destroy_cq_user(), which is too late, since by that point vendor-specific resources associated with the CQ might already be freed. This can leave a short window where the CQ remains accessible through restrack, leading to a potential use-after-free.
Fix this by moving the rdma_restrack_begin_del() call to the start of ib_destroy_cq_user(), ensuring that the CQ is removed from restrack before its internal resources are released. This guarantees that no new users hold references to a CQ that is in the process of destruction.
In addition, this change preserves the intended inverted order between create and destroy routines: resources are added to restrack at the end of successful cre
