Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) RXE component. A race condition exists between the retransmit_timer() and rxe_destroy_qp functions. This can cause a Queue Pair (QP) reference count to underflow, leading to a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could potentially leverage this to cause a denial of service or achieve arbitrary code execution.
