Overview

CVE-2026-46053 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on May 27, 2026 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 7.8 (HIGH).

Technical description

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

net: rds: fix MR cleanup on copy error

__rds_rdma_map() hands sg/pages ownership to the transport after

get_mr() succeeds. If copying the generated cookie back to user space

fails after that point, the error path must not free those resources

again before dropping the MR reference.

Remove the duplicate unpin/free from the put_user() failure branch so

that MR teardown is handled only through the existing final cleanup

path.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
