Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Double free (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43128)
CWE-ID: CWE-415 - Double Free
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 cause a denial of service.
The vulnerability exists due to double free in RDMA umem dma-buf pinning logic when handling a failure in ib_umem_dmabuf_get_pinned_with_dma_device(). A local user can trigger a failure in dma-buf page mapping to cause a denial of service.
The issue occurs because the dma-buf may be unpinned on the failure path while the pinned flag remains set, leading to a second unpin during the release and revoke path.
Remediation
Install update from vendor's website.
