CVE-2026-68419: RDMA/irdma: Prevent rereg_mr for non-mem regions

Published Aug 10, 2026
·
Updated

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

RDMA/irdma: Prevent reregmr for non-mem regions

When a QP/CQ/SRQ is created, a two step process is used where the buffer is allocated in userspace and explicitly registered with the normal regmr mechanism prior to creating the actual QP/CQ/SRQ object.

These special registrations are indicated via an ABI field so the driver knows that they do not have a valid mkey and to skip the actual CQP command submission.

Since these are real MR objects from the core's perspective, it is possible for a user application to invoke reregmr on them and cause a real CQP op to be emitted with the zero-initialized mkey value of 0.

Fix this by preventing reregmr on these special regions.
