RDMA/qedr: Fix potential memory leak in __qedr_alloc_mr()

Published Jun 18, 2025 CVSS 3.1 · 5.5 Medium EPSS < 1% KEV · Not listed
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

RDMA/qedr: Fix potential memory leak in __qedr_alloc_mr()

__qedr_alloc_mr() allocates a memory chunk for "mr->info.pbl_table" with
init_mr_info(). When rdma_alloc_tid() and rdma_register_tid() fail, "mr"
is released while "mr->info.pbl_table" is not released, which will lead
to a memory leak.

We should release the "mr->info.pbl_table" with qedr_free_pbl() when error
occurs to fix the memory leak.
