CVE-2011-0695

Linux Kernel 2.6.0-2.6.39.3 - Denial of Service via InfiniBand Request Race Condition

Title source: llm

Description

Race condition in the cm_work_handler function in the InfiniBand driver (drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c) in Linux kernel 2.6.x allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (panic) by sending an InfiniBand request while other request handlers are still running, which triggers an invalid pointer dereference.
