Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-46114)

CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read

CVSSv4: CVSS:4.0/AV:N/AC:L/AT:N/PR:N/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N/E:U/U:Green


The vulnerability allows a remote attacker to disclose sensitive information.

The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in atomic_write_reply() in the RDMA rxe responder when processing a crafted ATOMIC_WRITE request with a zero-length logical payload. A remote attacker can send a specially crafted ATOMIC_WRITE request to disclose sensitive information.

The issue can leak kernel tailroom bytes into the attacker's memory region, including recognizable kernel strings and partial pointer words.
