What it is

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

net/smc: Fix possible access to freed memory in link clear

After modifying the QP to the Error state, all RX WR would be completed

with WC in IB_WC_WR_FLUSH_ERR status. Current implementation does not

wait for it is done, but destroy the QP and free the link group directly.

So there is a risk that accessing the freed memory in tasklet context.

Here is a crash example:

BUG: unable to handle page fault for address: ffffffff8f220860

#PF: supervisor write access in kernel mode

#PF: error_code(0x0002) - not-present page
