Description

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

RDMA/ucma: Protect mc during concurrent multicast leaves

Partially revert the commit mentioned in the Fixes line to make sure that
allocation and erasing multicast struct are locked.

BUG: KASAN: use-after-free in ucma_cleanup_multicast drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c:491 [inline]

Currently the xarray search can touch a concurrently freeing mc as the
xa_for_each() is not surrounded by any lock. Rather than hold the lock for
a full scan hold it only for the effected items, which is usually an empty
list.

CVSS v3 base metrics

Attack vector: More severe the more the remote (logically and physically) an attacker can be in order to exploit the vulnerability.
Attack complexity: More severe for the least complex attacks.
Privileges required: More severe if no privileges are required.
User interaction: More severe when no user interaction is required.
Scope: More severe when a scope change occurs, e.g. one vulnerable component impacts resources in components beyond its security scope.
Confidentiality: More severe when loss of data confidentiality is highest, measuring the level of data access available to an unauthorized user.
Integrity: More severe when loss of data integrity is the highest, measuring the consequence of data modification possible by an unauthorized user.
Availability: More severe when the loss of impacted component availability is highest.
