| Doc Text: |
A flaw was found in the RDMA/bnxt_re component of the Linux kernel. This vulnerability arises from insufficient validation of the Work Queue Entry (WQE) mode, which dictates how tasks are managed, against the hardware's defined slot limits. A local attacker could exploit this by supplying an invalid WQE mode value, potentially causing unexpected system behavior or a denial of service (DoS).
