      <title>CVE-2026-72464 — xprtrdma: Repost Receive buffers for malformed replies</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2026-72464</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;xprtrdma: Repost Receive buffers for malformed replies&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;rpcrdma_wc_receive() decrements the transport&amp;#39;s Receive count for
every completion before it dispatches a successful Receive to
rpcrdma_reply_handler(). The handler must post a replacement
Receive WR before returning unless ownership of the rep has moved
elsewhere, as on the backchannel path.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Commit 2ae50ad68cd7 (&amp;#34;xprtrdma: Close window between waking RPC
senders and posting Receives&amp;#34;) moved the Receive refill out of
rpcrdma_wc_receive(), where it had run ahead of every reply, into
rpcrdma_reply_handler() so that the responder&amp;#39;s credit grant could
be parsed before reposting. The bad-version and short-reply exits
never reach that refill: they recycle the rep and return without
calling rpcrdma_post_recvs().&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A remote peer can therefore drain the client&amp;#39;s posted Receive
queue by sending a sustained stream of replies that are shorter
than the fixed transport header or that carry an unrecognized
RPC/RDMA version. Each such reply consumes one posted Receive
without replacing it. Once the queue empties, the peer&amp;#39;s next
Send finds no posted Receive and the transport stalls until
reconnect.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Route both malformed-reply exits through the shared repost tail
after recycling the rep, refilling against buf-&amp;gt;rb_credits, the
most recent accepted credit grant. Neither exit updates the
congestion window, so RPCs admitted under the previous grant
remain in flight awaitin…&lt;/p&gt;</description>
