Description
This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.
1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-74377)
CWE-ID: CWE-125 - Out-of-bounds read
CVSSv4: 4.8 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:L/UI:N/VC:L/VI:N/VA:N/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]
The vulnerability allows a local user to cause an out-of-bounds read.
The vulnerability exists due to an out-of-bounds read in rxe_resp_check_length() and copy_data() when processing a receive WQE from a shared queue buffer mapped into userspace. A local user can modify WQE fields such as num_sge or sge entries during processing to cause an out-of-bounds read.
The issue affects the non-SRQ queue pair receive path.
