CVE-2026-90309 PUBLISHED

RDMA/erdma: Hold CQ references when processing EQ events

Assigner: Linux
Reserved: 11.09.2026 Published: 17.09.2026 Updated: 17.09.2026

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

RDMA/erdma: Hold CQ references when processing EQ events

EQ handlers look up CQs from dev->cq_xa and invoke CQ completion or error callbacks outside the xarray lock. erdma_destroy_cq() can erase the CQ from the xarray and free its queue buffer and doorbell record while a previously scheduled EQ handler is still using the CQ.

Add a CQ refcount and take a reference under the xarray lock with refcount_inc_not_zero(). Remove the CQ from the xarray before dropping the destroy-path reference, then wait for in-flight EQ users before releasing CQ resources.
