Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-08-15 06:32:44 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

RDMA/rxe: Copy WQE to local buffer in non-SRQ receive path

For non-SRQ QPs, the responder reads WQE fields directly from the
shared queue buffer mapped into userspace. This allows a malicious
user to modify fields like num_sge or sge entries while the kernel
is processing the WQE, leading to out-of-bounds reads in
rxe_resp_check_length() and copy_data().

Introduce get_recv_wqe() that validates num_sge and copies the WQE
to a kernel-local buffer before processing, matching the approach
already used for SRQ WQEs in get_srq_wqe(). The srq_wqe buffer is
reused since SRQ and non-SRQ paths are mutually exclusive per QP.
