  "details": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nrds: ib: Clear the sg list when mapping an MR fails\n\nrds_ib_map_frmr() stores the caller's scatterlist in the MR before DMA\nmapping and registration can fail. On failure, __rds_rdma_map() unpins\nthe pages and frees the scatterlist, but rds_ib_free_frmr() can still\nreturn the MR to the pool with the stale pointer set.\n\nThis leaves the pool with a dangling scatterlist and can lead to local\nprivilege escalation. KASAN detects the resulting use-after-free when the\nMR is later torn down:\n\nBUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in __rds_ib_teardown_mr\nRead of size 8\n\nCall Trace:\n __rds_ib_teardown_mr\n rds_ib_unreg_frmr\n rds_ib_flush_mr_pool\n rds_ib_flush_mrs\n rds_free_mr\n rds_setsockopt\n\nStore the scatterlist in the MR only after DMA mapping succeeds. If DMA\nmapping fails, return directly while the MR fields remain clear; the caller\nkeeps ownership of the scatterlist and its pinned pages. If a later\nregistration step fails, unmap the scatterlist and clear the MR fields\nbefore returning.",
