It uses NULL\npointers to distinguish resources that are still owned from resources\nthat have already been released.\n\nWhen rds_ib_setup_qp() fails after allocating i_sends but before\nallocating i_recvs, the sends_out path frees i_sends without clearing\nthe pointer. A later shutdown pass can still treat that stale pointer\nas a live send ring allocation.\n\nClear i_sends after vfree() in the error unwind path so the existing\nshutdown logic continues to use the correct ownership state.","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":9.8},"cwes":["CWE-476"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/1d4ec754ee3871f7e3670c67bb0298c9c5760926","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/20cf0fb715c41111469577e85e35d15f099473e0","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/27040bbca289a704eafcacca167d310c6ce2b1bc","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/29d940026dce39e3018dab6f67c9427249321270","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/2c5e5e4a5970c41f16e3ad801a78719ed5d5c71b"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:42:16.820116992+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-53355","score":0.00421,"percentile":0.36465,"date":"2026-10-31"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
