NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-uek-headers package and not the kernel-uek-headers package as distributed by Oracle. See How to fix? for Oracle:7 relevant fixed versions and status.

drivers/infiniband/core/ucma.c in the Linux kernel through 4.17.11 allows ucma_leave_multicast to access a certain data structure after a cleanup step in ucma_process_join, which allows attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free).
