Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Race condition (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-93108)

CWE-ID: CWE-362 - Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization ('Race Condition')

CVSSv4: 4.6 [CVSS:4.0/AV:L/AC:L/AT:N/PR:H/UI:N/VC:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local privileged user to cause a denial of service.

The vulnerability exists due to improper synchronization in the IPoIB module teardown path when unloading the module while RCU callbacks remain pending. A local privileged user can initiate module teardown before queued RCU callbacks complete to cause a denial of service.

The condition can also occur after client registration failure removes already-added devices and queues callbacks.
