      <title>CVE-2024-40992 — RDMA/rxe: Fix responder length checking for UD request packets</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2024-40992</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/rxe: Fix responder length checking for UD request packets&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;According to the IBA specification:
If a UD request packet is detected with an invalid length, the request
shall be an invalid request and it shall be silently dropped by
the responder. The responder then waits for a new request packet.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;commit 689c5421bfe0 (&amp;#34;RDMA/rxe: Fix incorrect responder length checking&amp;#34;)
defers responder length check for UD QPs in function `copy_data`.
But it introduces a regression issue for UD QPs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;When the packet size is too large to fit in the receive buffer.
`copy_data` will return error code -EINVAL. Then `send_data_in`
will return RESPST_ERR_MALFORMED_WQE. UD QP will transfer into
ERROR state.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
