In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/rds: fix NULL deref in rds_ib_send_cqe_handler() on masked atomic completion
rds_ib_xmit_atomic() always programs a masked atomic opcode
(IB_WR_MASKED_ATOMIC_CMP_AND_SWP or IB_WR_MASKED_ATOMIC_FETCH_AND_ADD)
for every RDS atomic cmsg. But the completion-side switch in
rds_ib_send_unmap_op() only handles the non-masked opcodes, so a masked
atomic completion falls through to default and returns rm == NULL while
send->s_op is left set. rds_ib_send_cqe_handler() then dereferences the
NULL rm via rm->m_final_op, oopsing in softirq context. An unprivileged
AF_RDS sendmsg() of an atomic cmsg over an active RDS/IB connection
triggers it; on hardware that natively accepts masked atomics (mlx4,
mlx5) no extra setup is needed.
