    In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

    RDMA/rxe: Fix NULL-ptr-deref in rxe_qp_do_cleanup() when socket create failed

    There is a null-ptr-deref when mount.cifs over rdma:

       entry_SYSCALL_64_after_hwframe+0x46/0xb0

    The root cause of the issue is the socket create failed in
    rxe_qp_init_req().

    So move the reset rxe_qp_do_cleanup() after the NULL ptr check.

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the Unity Linux security advisory.
