Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux Kernel versions prior to v6.0.16
Description A potential issue exists in the RDMA/rxe component, specifically in the rxe qp do cleanup() function, where a NULL pointer dereference can occur when socket creation fails. The actual impact and attack plausibility have not yet been proven.
Recommendations For Linux Kernel versions prior to v6.0.16, update to version v6.0.16 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the RDMA/rxe component until a patch is available.
