CVE-2026-52941

Estado: AnalizadaMedia (5.5)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net/smc: avoid NULL deref of conn->lnk in smc_msg_event tracepoint

The smc_msg_event tracepoint class, shared by smc_tx_sendmsg and smc_rx_recvmsg, unconditionally dereferences smc->conn.lnk:

conn->lnk is only set for SMC-R; for SMC-D it is NULL. Other code on these paths already handles this (e.g. !conn->lnk in SMC_STAT_RMB_TX_SIZE_SMALL()). With the tracepoint enabled, the first sendmsg()/recvmsg() on an SMC-D socket crashes:

The faulting address 0x3e0 is offsetof(struct smc_link, ibname), confirming the NULL ->lnk deref.

Leer descripción completaMostrar menos

Enabling the tracepoint requires root, but the trigger itself is unprivileged: socket(AF_SMC, ...) has no capability check, and SMC-D negotiation needs no admin step on s390 or on x86 with the loopback ISM device loaded.

Log an empty device name for SMC-D instead of dereferencing NULL.
