Details

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

RDMA/rxe: Fix NULL-ptr-deref in rxe_qp_do_cleanup() when socket create failed

There is a null-ptr-deref when mount.cifs over rdma:

BUG: KASAN: null-ptr-deref in rxe_qp_do_cleanup+0x2f3/0x360 [rdma_rxe] Read of size 8 at addr 0000000000000018 by task mount.cifs/3046

CPU: 2 PID: 3046 Comm: mount.cifs Not tainted 6.1.0-rc5+ #62 Hardware name: QEMU Standard PC (i440FX + PIIX, 1996), BIOS 1.14.0-1.fc3 Call Trace: dump_stack_lvl+0x34/0x44 kasan_report+0xad/0x130 rxe_qp_do_cleanup+0x2f3/0x360 [rdma_rxe] execute_in_process_context+0x25/0x90 __rxe_cleanup+0x101/0x1d0 [rdma_rxe] rxe_create_qp+0x16a/0x180 [rdma_rxe] create_qp.part.0+0x27d/0x340 ib_create_qp_kernel+0x73/0x160 rdma_create_qp+0x100/0x230 _smbd_get_connection+0x752/0x20f0 smbd_get_connection+0x21/0x40 cifs_get_tcp_session+0x8ef/0xda0 mount_get_conns+0x60/0x750 cifs_mount+0x103/0xd00 cifs_smb3_do_mount+0x1dd/0xcb0 smb3_get_tree+0x1d5/0x300 vfs_get_tree+0x41/0xf0 path_mount+0x9b3/0xdd0 __x64_sys_mount+0x190/0x1d0 do_syscall_64+0x35/0x80 entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x46/0xb0

The root cause of the issue is the socket create failed in rxe_qp_init_req().

So move the reset rxe_qp_do_cleanup() after the NULL ptr check.
