Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-10-07 16:03:48 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

RDMA/rxe: Fix mr->map double free

rxe_mr_cleanup() which tries to free mr->map again will be called when
rxe_mr_init_user() fails:

   CPU: 0 PID: 4917 Comm: rdma_flush_serv Kdump: loaded Not tainted 6.1.0-rc1-roce-flush+ #25

This issue was firstly exposed since commit b18c7da63fcb ("RDMA/rxe: Fix
memory leak in error path code") and then we fixed it in commit
8ff5f5d9d8cf ("RDMA/rxe: Prevent double freeing rxe_map_set()") but this
fix was reverted together at last by commit 1e75550648da (Revert
"RDMA/rxe: Create duplicate mapping tables for FMRs")

Simply let rxe_mr_cleanup() always handle freeing the mr->map once it is
successfully allocated.
