The vulnerability of the `bnxt_qplib_alloc_init_hwq()` function in the drivers/infiniband/hw/bnxt_re/qplib_res.c module of the Linux kernel allows a hacker to gain elevated privileges within the system.

The vulnerability of the bnxtqpliballocinithwq function in the drivers/infiniband/hw/bnxtre/qplibres.c module of the Linux kernel is related to the execution of operations outside of the buffer in memory. Exploiting this vulnerability can allow an attacker to gain elevated privileges within the...
