** Description changed:

- Linux kernel built with the InfiniBand communication
- link(CONFIG_INFINIBAND) along with the support for Remote Direct Memory
- Access(RDMA) over Convered Ethernet(RoCE), is vulnerable to a crash
- caused by invalid memory access. It occurs while trying to resolve RoCE
- L2 address on the server side. A remote unprivileged user/program could
- use this flaw to crash the kernel, resulting in DoS.
+ The cma_req_handler function in drivers/infiniband/core/cma.c in the
+ Linux kernel 3.14.x through 3.14.1 attempts to resolve an RDMA over
+ Converged Ethernet (aka RoCE) address that is properly resolved within a
+ different module, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of
+ service (incorrect pointer dereference and system crash) via crafted
+ network traffic.
