From: Greg Kroah-Hartman <[email protected]> Description =========== In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/rxe: Fix TOCTOU heap overflow in get_srq_wqe get_srq_wqe() reads wqe->dma.num_sge from the shared receive queue buffer, which is mapped into userspace. It validates num_sge against max_sge, but then re-reads the same field to calculate the memcpy size. A concurrent userspace thread can modify num_sge between validation and use, causing a heap buffer overflow when copying the WQE into qp->resp.srq_wqe. Read num_sge into a local variable and use it for both the bounds check and the size calculation. The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2026-74378 to this issue.

Affected files ============== The file(s) affected by this issue are: drivers/infiniband/sw/rxe/rxe_resp.c Mitigation ========== The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this issue can be found at these commits: https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3cfa2a3adc51b7c57729961a03446962ff10e3d2 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/cd19a6345e3727adafafa5954b58b13c92e13b80 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/3e07ea9579dc9553d2285c26c2823931358aa3b8 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/02558c86b6b761063e9399e6b939984500327ef1 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b9800d7953d119bcc068c74587d48e4ba0313629 https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/22b8fbded65b8c441b634a185f8da67657df6c50
