CVE-2026-92508

Estado: RecibidaAlta (7.8)—

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

RDMA/core: Fix potential use after free in ib_free_cq()

When accessing a CQ via the netlink path the only synchronization mechanism for the said CQ is rdma_restrack_get(). Currently, rdma_restrack_del() is invoked at the end of ib_free_cq(), which is too late, since by that point vendor-specific resources associated with the CQ might already be freed. This can leave a short window where the CQ remains accessible through restrack, leading to a potential use-after-free.

Fix this by moving the rdma_restrack_del() call to be before the freeing of the vendor-specific resources ensuring that the CQ is removed from restrack before its internal resources are released.

This guarantees that no new users hold references to a CQ that is in the process of destruction.
