Vulnerability details

The vulnerability allows a local privileged user to cause a use-after-free condition.

The vulnerability exists due to a race condition in the RDMA/cxgb4 device removal and registration work handling when removing an RDMA device while registration work is pending or running. A local privileged user can remove the device while the registration work accesses the device object to cause a use-after-free condition.
