Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description A use-after-free issue exists in the RDMA/rxe component. The rxe mmap() function removes a rxe mmap info structure from the pending mmaps list and releases the pending lock while the structure's reference count is still 1. This allows a concurrent DESTROY CQ ioctl on another CPU to trigger rxe mmap release(), which calls vfree() on ip->obj and kfree() on the rxe mmap info structure while remap vmalloc range partial() is still walking Page Table Entries (PTEs) without a lock.
This race condition can lead to two outcomes:
  1. A kernel crash occurring when vmalloc to page() returns NULL, resulting in a general protection fault in validate page before insert().
  2. A page-level use-after-free where a user Virtual Memory Area (VMA) holds a PTE to a freed page that may be reallocated by vmalloc.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
