Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Improper control of a resource through its lifetime (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-43502)

CWE-ID: CWE-664 - Improper control of a resource through its lifetime

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 improper resource management in rds_message_purge() in the net/rds subsystem when cleaning up a failed zerocopy send before the message is queued. A local user can trigger an early zerocopy send failure to cause a denial of service.

The issue occurs after user pages have been pinned but before the message is attached to the sending socket.
