CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to memory corruption within the create_mkey_callback(), alloc_cacheable_mr(), reg_create() and create_real_mr() functions in drivers/infiniband/hw/mlx5/mr.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
2) Use-after-free (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-22121)
CWE-ID: CWE-416 - Use After Free
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:H/VI:H/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a local user to escalate privileges on the system.
The vulnerability exists due to a use-after-free error within the __ext4_xattr_check_block(), __xattr_check_inode(), ext4_xattr_ibody_get(), ext4_xattr_ibody_list(), ext4_get_inode_usage(), ext4_xattr_ibody_find() and sizeof() functions in fs/ext4/xattr.c, within the ext4_iget_extra_inode() function in fs/ext4/inode.c. A local user can escalate privileges on the system.
3) Input validation error (CVE-ID: CVE-2025-37797)
CWE-ID: CWE-20 - Improper input validation
CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:H/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Clear
The vulnerability allows a local user to perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
The vulnerability exists due to improper input validation within the hfsc_change_class() function in net/sched/sch_hfsc.c. A local user can perform a denial of service (DoS) attack.
