In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/irdma: Prevent user-triggered null deref on QP create
Previously, the user QP creation path would only attempt to
populate iwqp->iwpbl if the user-provided req.user_wqe_bufs
field was non-zero. The problem is that iwqp->iwpbl is
unconditionally dereferenced later on in irdma_setup_virt_qp.
While there was a check for iwqp->iwpbl != NULL, this check
would only occur if req.user_wqe_bufs was non-zero. The end
result is that a user could send a zero user_wqe_bufs value
and trigger a null ptr deref.
Fix this by unconditionally calling irdma_get_pbl and bailing
if it fails, similar to the CQ and SRQ paths.
A flaw was found in the RDMA/irdma component of the Linux kernel. A local user could exploit this vulnerability by providing a zero value for user_wqe_bufs during the creation of a Queue Pair (QP). This action leads to a null pointer dereference, which can cause the system to crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
Отчет
This issue affects systems using the Intel RDMA (irdma) driver. A local user creating a queue pair with user_wqe_bufs set to zero can trigger a NULL pointer dereference because iwpbl is not allocated but is later dereferenced unconditionally. Systems without irdma/RDMA userspace access are not affected.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, prevent the irdma module from loading. See https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 for instructions.
