This can leave a short window where the dmah remains accessible\nthrough restrack, leading to a potential use-after-free.\n\nFix this by moving the rdma_restrack_begin_del() call to the start of\nuverbs_free_dmah(), ensuring that the dmah is removed from restrack\nbefore its internal resources are released. This guarantees that no new\nusers hold references to a dmah that is in the process of destruction.\n\nIn addition, this change preserves the intended inverted order\nbetween create and destroy routines: resources are added to\nrestrack at the end of successful creation, and hence shall be removed\nfrom the restrack first thing during the destruction flow, which keeps\nthe lifecycle management consistent and predictable."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_std_types_dmah.c"],"versions":[{"version":"d83edab562a496a42720902a1d2effccd05c37c5","lessThan":"8b22722f45a29a7c0900b1d4d0bc5da5492ece10","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"d83edab562a496a42720902a1d2effccd05c37c5","lessThan":"bfc119a40c04bbe3daad826f2160ccbfae6c64ce","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"d83edab562a496a42720902a1d2effccd05c37c5","lessThan":"2696626a0be5877f445fb647c25ef43930c777e6","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["drivers/infiniband/core/uverbs_std_types_dmah.c"],"versions":[{"version":"6.17","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"6.17","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.18.52","lessThanOrEqual":"6.18.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.2.6","lessThanOrEqual":"7.2.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"7.3-rc1","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.17","versionEndExcluding":"6.18.52"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.17","versionEndExcluding":"7.2.6"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"6.17","versionEndExcluding":"7.3-rc1"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8b22722f45a29a7c0900b1d4d0bc5da5492ece10"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/bfc119a40c04bbe3daad826f2160ccbfae6c64ce"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2696626a0be5877f445fb647c25ef43930c777e6"}],"title":"RDMA/core: Fix potential use after free in uverbs_free_dmah()","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}}}}
