CVE-2011-0695
Status: ModifiedMedium (5.7)—
Race condition in the cm_work_handler function in the InfiniBand driver (drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.x allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) by sending an InfiniBand request while other request handlers are still running, which triggers an invalid pointer dereference.
CVSS
- Version: 2.0
- Vector: AV:A/AC:M/Au:N/C:N/I:N/A:C
- Base score: 5.7
Exploitation probability (EPSS)
- Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 1.18%
- Percentile among all scored CVEs: 67
- Score date: 10/8/2026
EPSS (Exploit Prediction Scoring System, FIRST) estimates how likely a vulnerability is to be exploited in the wild within 30 days. It complements CVSS (impact) and CISA KEV (confirmed exploitation).
