      <title>CVE-2026-97477 — RDMA/counter: Fix num_counters leak on bind_qp failure in alloc_and_bind()</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-97477</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;RDMA/counter: Fix num_counters leak on bind_qp failure in alloc_and_bind()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When __rdma_counter_bind_qp() fails in alloc_and_bind(), the error path
jumps to err_mode which frees the counter without decrementing
port_counter-&amp;gt;num_counters. The only place that decrements is
rdma_counter_free(), which is unreachable since the counter was never
successfully bound.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This leak accumulates across repeated failures, permanently preventing
the port from switching to AUTO mode (-EBUSY in __counter_set_mode())
and blocking the MANUAL→NONE auto-revert in rdma_counter_free(). When
the mode was NONE before the call, the MANUAL mode set by
__counter_set_mode() also leaks since the revert logic is never
reached.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Add an err_bind label between the num_counters increment and the
existing err_mode label. It decrements num_counters and mirrors the
MANUAL→NONE revert from rdma_counter_free(), ensuring the port state
is fully restored on bind failure.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
