What the CVE records say

CVE-2024-47693 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: IB/core: Fix ib_cache_setup_one error flow cleanup When ib_cache_update return an error, we exit ib_cache_setup_one instantly with no proper cleanup, even though before this we had already successfully done gid_table_setup_one, that results in the kernel WARN below. Do proper cleanup using gid_table_cleanup_one before returning the err in order to fix the issue.

What to do

  1. Check the affected products listed above against the official advisory's affected-versions table — that is where the exact ONTAP 9 release, ONTAP tool, or management product versions are named.
  2. If affected and a fixed release exists, plan the upgrade — see the ONTAP upgrade runbook.
  3. If exploitation is listed as "active", treat remediation as urgent and review exposure (management LIFs, ONTAP S3, SnapMirror endpoints).
  4. Harden in parallel: security hardening baseline and ransomware protection on ONTAP.
