Summary

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/core: Set send and receive CQ before forwarding to the driver Preset both receive and send CQ pointers prior to call to the drivers and overwrite it later again till the mlx4 is going to be changed do not overwrite ibqp properties. This change is needed for mlx5, because in case of QP creation failure, it will go to the path of QP destroy which relies on proper CQ pointers. BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in create_qp.cold+0x164/0x16e [mlx5_ib] Write of size 8 at addr ffff8880064c55c0 by task a.out/246 CPU: 0 PID: 246 Comm: a.out Not tainted 5.15.0+ #291 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (Q35 + ICH9, 2009), BIOS rel-1.13.0-0-gf21b5a4aeb02-prebuilt.qemu.org 04/01/2014 Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x45/0x59 print_a
