  "details" : [ "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\nRDMA/restrack: Release MR restrack when delete\nThe MR restrack also needs to be released when delete it, otherwise it\ncause memory leak as the task struct won't be released.", "A flaw was found in the Linux kernel, specifically within the Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) restrack component. A local user could exploit this vulnerability due to a failure to properly release the Memory Region (MR) restrack when it is deleted. This oversight leads to a memory leak, which can result in a Denial of Service (DoS) condition on the system." ],
