AI-suggested

A fix is available and has been applied in multiple Linux kernel commits. Users should update to a fixed Linux kernel version that includes these patches to resolve the CQ pool leak issue. No additional mitigation is required beyond applying the official fix.

Description

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's RDMA RTRS client component causes a completion queue (CQ) pool leak when a connection attempt is interrupted. This occurs due to improper handling of CQ credits during connection teardown, leading to resource leaks and potential kernel warnings during device unregister.
