{"apiVersion":"1.0","identifier":"CVE-2026-72468","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: xprtrdma: Initialize re_id before removal registration rpcrdma_create_id() registers ep->re_rn with the rpcrdma ib_client before returning the new rdma_cm_id to rpcrdma_ep_create(). However rpcrdma_ep_create() currently stores that pointer in ep->re_id only after rpcrdma_create_id() returns. A local administrator can race an NFS/RDMA mount against RDMA device removal. If rpcrdma_remove_one() observes the just-registered notification before rpcrdma_ep_create() assigns ep->re_id, rpcrdma_ep_removal_done() calls trace_xprtrdma_device_removal(NULL). The tracepoint dereferences id->device->name and copies id->route.addr.dst_addr, so the callback can crash the kernel with a NULL pointer dereference. Store the rdma_cm_id in ep->re_id immediately before publishing ep->re_rn. The existing error path still destroys the id directly if registration fails; ep is then freed by the caller without using ep->re_id. Remove the later duplicate assignment in rpcrdma_ep_create().","publishedAt":"2026-08-15T06:22:20","lastModifiedAt":"2026-08-17T06:19:14","sourceUrl":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-72468","cvssScore":null,"cvssVector":"Pending","epssProbability":0.002,"riskScore":0,"affectedProduct":"Linux kernel","affectedVersions":"unknown","vulnerabilityType":"Kernel","operatingSystems":[],"links":{"self":"https://www.redsauce.net/api/cves/CVE-2026-72468","webPages":{"es":"https://www.redsauce.net/es/cves/CVE-2026-72468","en":"https://www.redsauce.net/en/cves/CVE-2026-72468","fr":"https://www.redsauce.net/fr/cves/CVE-2026-72468","pt":"https://www.redsauce.net/pt/cves/CVE-2026-72468","de":"https://www.redsauce.net/de/cves/CVE-2026-72468","sk":"https://www.redsauce.net/sk/cves/CVE-2026-72468","el":"https://www.redsauce.net/el/cves/CVE-2026-72468"},"source":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-72468"}}
