Описание
A memory leak in the bnxt_re_create_srq() function in drivers/infiniband/hw/bnxt_re/ib_verbs.c in the Linux kernel through 5.3.11 allows attackers to cause a denial of service (memory consumption) by triggering copy to udata failures, aka CID-4a9d46a9fe14.
A memory leak flaw was found in the Broadcom NetXtreme HCA driver in the Linux kernel, in the way it handled resource cleanup on the copy to userspace error. This flaw allows a local attacker to trigger this error and crash the system.
Отчет
This issue is rated as having Moderate impact because local attacker is needed in order to trigger it.
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 bnxt_re. For instructions relating to how to blacklist a kernel module refer to: https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 .
