CVE-2026-43494 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/rds: reset op_nents when zerocopy page pin fails When iov_iter_get_pages2() fails in rds_message_zcopy_from_user(), the pinned pages are released with put_page(), and rm->data.op_mmp_znotifier is cleared. But we fail to properly clear rm->data.op_nents. Later when rds_message_purge() is called from rds_sendmsg() the cleanup loop iterates over the incorrectly non zero number of op_nents and frees them again. Fix this by properly resetting op_nents when it should be in rds_message_zcopy_from_user().
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's RDS (Reliable Datagram Sockets) subsystem has been addressed. The issue arose when the zero-copy page pinning process failed, leading to an improper handling of the 'op_nents' counter. This mismanagement caused an incorrect number of entries to be freed during the message purge process, potentially leading to memory management issues. The vulnerability affects the Linux kernel stable tree.
Users can upgrade to the latest version of the Linux kernel stable tree to address this vulnerability.
