Descriptions

The rds_ib_xmit function in net/rds/ib_send.c in the Reliable Datagram Sockets (RDS) protocol implementation in the Linux kernel 3.7.4 and earlier allows local users to cause a denial of service (BUG_ON and kernel panic) by establishing an RDS connection with the source IP address equal to the IPoIB interface's own IP address, as demonstrated by rds-ping.

La función rds_ib_xmit en net/rds/ib_send.c en la implementación fiable de datagramas de protocolo Sockets (RDS) en el kernel Linux v3.7.4 y anteriores permite a usuarios locales provocar una denegación de servicio (BUG_ON y el pánico del kernel) mediante el establecimiento de una conexión RDS con la dirección IP de origen igual a la dirección de la interfaz IPoIB IP propia, como lo demuestra rds-ping.
