Subject: [PATCH 6/7] RDMA/siw: Fix new_cep use-after-free in siw_accept_newconn()
Date: Wed, 16 Sep 2026 18:41:09 +0000 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260916184109.2092928-1-vulab@iscas.ac.cn> (raw)
On the error path the listening endpoint reference of new_cep is
dropped before the accepted socket is disassociated. When only the
socket's reference remains, siw_socket_disassoc() drops that last
reference and frees the endpoint, leaving the subsequent
'new_cep->sock = NULL' writing into freed memory.
Tear the accepted socket down first and put the endpoint last.
Fixes: 6c52fdc244b5 ("rdma/siw: connection management")
