CVE-2026-64033
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/rtrs: Fix use-after-free in path file creation cleanup
In the error path of rtrssrvcreatepathfiles(), the sysfs root folders
may already have been created and srv_path->kobj may already have been
initialized. If a later step fails, the cleanup currently calls
kobjectput(&srvpath->kobj) before
rtrssrvdestroyoncesysfsrootfolders(srv_path).
kobjectput() may drop the last reference to srvpath->kobj and invoke the
release callback, rtrssrvrelease(), which frees srv_path. The following
call to rtrssrvdestroyoncesysfsrootfolders(srv_path) then
dereferences srvpath internally to access srvpath->srv, resulting in a
use-after-free.
This failure path is reached before rtrssrvcreatepathfiles() returns
success, so the successful-path lifetime handling is not involved.
Fix this by destroying the sysfs root folders before calling
kobjectput(&srvpath->kobj), so srv_path is still valid while the helper
accesses it.
This issue was found by a static analysis tool I am developing.
