CVE-2014-2739: Linux Kernel

Medium severity, CVSS 4.6. EPSS: 1.6% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.

The cma_req_handler function in drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c in the Linux kernel 3.14.x through 3.14.1 attempts to resolve an RDMA over Converged Ethernet (aka RoCE) address that is properly resolved within a different module, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (incorrect pointer dereference and system crash) via crafted network traffic.

Affected products

• Linux Linux Kernel: version 3.14 only; version 3.14.1 only
