This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 9.8, rated CRITICAL. It can be exploited remotely over the network. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical description

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

svcrdma: Fix offset arithmetic in read_chunk_range

svc_rdma_read_chunk_range() walks a Read chunk's segment list to

build a sub-range starting at byte offset and spanning length bytes

for a Position-Zero or Call chunk. Two arithmetic defects in the

per-segment loop produce wrong DMA lengths and a u32 underflow:

pcl_for_each_segment(segment, chunk) {

if (offset > segment->rs_length) {

offset -= segment->rs_length;

continue;

}

dummy.rs_handle = segment->rs_handle;

dummy.rs_length = min_t(u32, length,

segment->rs_length) - offset;

dummy.rs_offset = segment->rs_offset + offset;

First, the skip predicate uses '>' instead of '>='. When offset

equals the segment's full rs_length, the segment is fully consumed

and should be skipped, but the loop falls through into the body.

How can CyberStrike help with CVE-2026-89533?

CyberStrike is an open-source, AI-augmented pentesting engine. Rather than flag a version number, it tests whether an issue like CVE-2026-89533 is actually reachable in your own applications and APIs, then verifies each finding before reporting it. That tells you if the weakness is a real, exploitable risk in your environment or a false positive you can safely deprioritize.
