      "title": "xprtrdma: Fix bcall rep leak and unbounded peek",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nxprtrdma: Fix bcall rep leak and unbounded peek\n\nrpcrdma_is_bcall() decodes a reply's first words to decide whether\nthe frame is a backchannel call. Two issues in that decode path\nlet a short or malformed reply leak the receive buffer and drain\nthe Receive queue.\n\nFirst, the speculative peek\n\n    p = xdr_inline_decode(xdr, 0);\n    /* five p++ reads follow */\n\nasks xdr_inline_decode() for zero bytes, which returns xdr->p\nwithout consulting xdr->end. The five subsequent __be32 reads can\nthen walk up to 20 bytes past the wire payload into stale regbuf\ncontents and misclassify the reply as a backchannel call.\n\nSecond, after the post-peek\n\n    p = xdr_inline_decode(xdr, 3 * sizeof(*p));\n    if (unlikely(!p))\n            return true;\n\nthe short-header arm returns true without calling\nrpcrdma_bc_receive_call(). The contract with the caller is that a\ntrue return transfers ownership of rep to the backchannel path:\n\n    rpcrdma_reply_handler()\n      if (rpcrdma_is_bcall(r_xprt, rep))\n              return;        /* bare return, skips out_post */\n      ...\n    out_post:\n      rpcrdma_post_recvs(r_xprt, credits + ...);\n\nBecause rpcrdma_bc_receive_call() never ran, no one took rep, but\nrpcrdma_reply_handler still bare-returns past rpcrdma_rep_put()\nand rpcrdma_post_recvs(). The rep, with its persistently\nDMA-mapped receive buffer, is orphaned on rb_all_reps and freed\nonly at transport teardown. This completion reposts nothing, so\nits slot is reclaimed only when a later forward-channel reply\nreaches out_post and rpcrdma_post_recvs() allocates a fresh rep to\nbackfill; absent that traffic the Receive queue drains and the\npeer's Sends draw RNR NAKs.\n\nFix by consulting xdr->end after the zero-length peek so the five\n__be32 reads cannot run unless 20 bytes of wire payload remain. A\nbyte-precise comparison against xdr->end is required because a\nnon-4-aligned receive rounds the stream's word count up past the\ntrue payload. Also return false from the short-header arm so the\nreply falls through the normal out_norqst cleanup chain\n(rpcrdma_rep_put() plus rpcrdma_post_recvs()).",
