Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
RDMA/mlx5: Fix implicit ODP use after free<br />
<br />
Prevent double queueing of implicit ODP mr destroy work by using<br />
__xa_cmpxchg() to make sure this is the only time we are destroying this<br />
specific mr.<br />
<br />
Without this change, we could try to invalidate this mr twice, which in<br />
turn could result in queuing a MR work destroy twice, and eventually the<br />
second work could execute after the MR was freed due to the first work,<br />
causing a user after free and trace below.<br />
<br />
refcount_t: underflow; use-after-free.<br />
