linux / linux_kernel
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/core: Don't expose hw_counters outside of init net namespace
Commit 467f432a521a ("RDMA/core: Split port and device counter sysfs
attributes") accidentally almost exposed hw counters to non-init net
namespaces. It didn't expose them fully, as an attempt to read any of
those counters leads to a crash like this one:
