Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
The vulnerability is related to a possible null dereference in the net/rds component of the Linux kernel. The issue arises when the
cp parameter is null, and the code attempts to access cp->cp conn, leading to a null dereference. The vulnerability can be exploited to cause a denial of service. The cp parameter is not reassigned and is passed as null by certain call-sites, including rds get mr() and rds get mr for dest(). The code modified by the patch is guarded by IS ERR(trans private), where trans private is assigned based on the get mr() function, which can return an error pointer if the connection argument is null.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
