Doc Text:
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's RDMA/irdma component. This vulnerability allows a local user to deregister Memory Regions (MRs) that are actively backing Queue Pair (QP), Completion Queue (CQ), and Shared Receive Queue (SRQ) rings. By doing so, a malicious user could potentially disrupt network communication or cause system instability, leading to a denial of service.
