Description

This security bulletin contains information about 1 vulnerability.


1) Out-of-bounds read (CVE-ID: CVE-2026-93264)

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:N/VI:N/VA:L/SC:N/SI:N/SA:N]


The vulnerability allows a local user to cause memory registration to be rejected.

The vulnerability exists due to an incorrect chunk length calculation in the EFA RDMA driver's pbl_chunk_list_create function when registering a memory region whose PBL page count is a multiple of 510. A local user can register such a memory region to cause memory registration to be rejected.

The issue can also result in an out-of-bounds access to the chunks array.
