Last modified

CVE-2026-46053 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.8/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: rds: fix MR cleanup on copy error __rds_rdma_map() hands sg/pages ownership to the transport after get_mr() succeeds. If copying the generated cookie back to user space fails after that point, the error path must not free those resources again before dropping the MR reference. Remove the duplicate unpin/free from the put_user() failure branch so that MR teardown is handled only through the existing final cleanup path.. EPSS estimates a 0.13% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
