Threats Tagged 'cve-2026-46117'

This advisory addresses security vulnerabilities in the Red Hat Real Time Linux Kernel (kernel-rt) packages used in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8. The update fixes two security issues: a user-triggerable WARN_ON() condition in the RDMA mana driver (CVE-2026-46117) and a missing channel lock in the Bluetooth l2cap component (CVE-2026-53071). Additionally, it includes bug fixes and enhancements related to kernel locking order deadlocks. The update requires a system reboot to take effect.

Red Hat has issued a security advisory for the Linux kernel packages in Red Hat Enterprise Linux 8 addressing two vulnerabilities: CVE-2026-46117 and CVE-2026-53071. The first vulnerability involves a user-triggerable WARN_ON() in the RDMA mana driver, and the second involves a missing channel lock in the Bluetooth l2cap component. The update also includes bug fixes and enhancements. Systems must be rebooted after applying the update for the fixes to take effect.

The kernel packages contain the Linux kernel, the core of any Linux operating system.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: RDMA/mana: Remove user triggerable WARN_ON() in mana_ib_create_qp_rss() Sashiko points out that the user can specify WQs sharing the same CQ as a part of the uAPI and this will trigger the WARN_ON() then go on to corrupt the kernel. Just reject it outright and fail the QP creation.
