Описание
A memory leak in the mlx5_fpga_conn_create_cq() function in drivers/net/ethernet/mellanox/mlx5/core/fpga/conn.c in the Linux kernel before 5.3.11 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering mlx5_vector2eqn() failures, aka CID-c8c2a057fdc7.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. The Mellanox Technologies Innova driver mishandles resource cleanup on error. An attacker, able to trigger error could use this flaw to crash the system. The highest threat from this vulnerability is to system availability.
Отчет
This issue is rated as having Moderate impact because of the privileges needed to trigger the resource cleanup code path.
Меры по смягчению последствий
In order to mitigate this issue it is possible to prevent the affected code from being loaded by blacklisting the kernel module mlx5_core. For instructions relating to how to blacklist a kernel module refer to: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 .
