Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-04-24 15:09:18 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

smb: smbdirect: introduce smbdirect_socket.recv_io.credits.available

The logic off managing recv credits by counting posted recv_io and
granted credits is racy.

That's because the peer might already consumed a credit,
but between receiving the incoming recv at the hardware
and processing the completion in the 'recv_done' functions
we likely have a window where we grant credits, which
don't really exist.

So we better have a decicated counter for the
available credits, which will be incremented
when we posted new recv buffers and drained when
we grant the credits to the peer.
