UBUNTU-CVE-2024-47749: High severity ubuntu/linux vulnerability
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/cxgb4: Added NULL check for lookupatid The lookupatid() function can return NULL if the ATID is invalid or does not exist in the identifier table, which could lead to dereferencing a null pointer without a check in the actestablish() and actopenrpl() functions. Add a NULL check to prevent null pointer dereferencing. Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with SVACE.

Add a NULL check for the value returned by lookup_atid() before dereferencing it in act_establish() and act_open_rpl().
Linux kernel RDMA/cxgb4 NULL check for lookup_atid() result = required
Event History
Frequently Asked Questions
Which systems are exposed to this issue?
The affected software list includes Ubuntu linux, linux-fips, linux-aws, linux-azure, linux-gcp, and their listed FIPS variants. The vulnerable code is in the kernel RDMA/cxgb4 component.
What does an attacker need to trigger the issue?
The issue requires local access and low privileges, with no user interaction required. Exploitation involves an invalid or nonexistent ATID causing lookup_atid() to return NULL, followed by dereferencing that value in act_establish() or act_open_rpl().
What is the likely impact?
The disclosed impact is availability only: a NULL pointer dereference can cause a denial of service. No confidentiality or integrity impact is indicated by the provided vector.
