CVE-2025-68811
Description
From CVE.org
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: svcrdma: use rc_pageoff for memcpy byte offset svc_rdma_copy_inline_range added rc_curpage (page index) to the page base instead of the byte offset rc_pageoff. Use rc_pageoff so copies land within the current page. Found by ZeroPath (https://zeropath.com)
Statement
This is an out-of-bounds write caused by using a page index (rc_curpage) as a byte offset in memcpy(). A remote NFS/RDMA client can trigger memory corruption or kernel crashes by sending specially crafted inline data. In the worst case, this breaks the memory safety assumptions of the RDMA receive path and may allow cross-object memory corruption. Although the issue is remotely triggerable, the attack vector is Adjacent (AV:A), since it requires access to an authorized NFS over RDMA fabric and cannot be exploited from the general Internet. This makes it a storage-network-level vulnerability rather than a public network exposure.
Mitigation
To mitigate this issue, prevent module rpcrdma from being loaded. Please see https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 for how to blacklist a kernel module to prevent it from loading automatically.
Common Vulnerability Scoring System (CVSS) Score Details
Info alert:Important note
CVSS scores for open source components depend on vendor-specific factors (e.g. version or build chain). Therefore, Red Hat's score and impact rating can be different from NVD and other vendors. Red Hat remains the authoritative CVE Naming Authority (CNA) source for its products and services (see Red Hat classifications).

Understanding the Weakness (CWE)
Integrity
Technical Impact: Modify Memory; Execute Unauthorized Code or Commands
Write operations could cause memory corruption. In some cases, an adversary can modify control data such as return addresses in order to execute unexpected code.
Availability
Technical Impact: DoS: Crash, Exit, or Restart
Attempting to access out-of-range, invalid, or unauthorized memory could cause the product to crash.
Other
Technical Impact: Unexpected State
Subsequent write operations can produce undefined or unexpected results.
