If cma_acquire_dev_by_src_ip() returns an error (non-zero status), the ID remains unassociated with any RDMA device. Previously, rdma_restrack_add(&id_priv->res) was invoked unconditionally even when cma_acquire_dev_by_src_ip() failed, passing a resource with a NULL dev pointer and triggering the WARN_ON assertion in res_to_rt(). Fix this by only adding the resource to restrack when acquiring the device succeeds.

Affected products and versions
NVD has not supplied machine-readable vulnerable CPE product/version entries for this CVE. This is an information gap, not proof that no products are affected. Check the vendor advisory references below.
Remediation & validation
- Identify exposure by comparing the affected product and version ranges with your asset inventory, SBOM and externally exposed services.
- Review the linked vendor security advisory or patch notes. Upgrade to a vendor-confirmed fixed release; do not infer a fixed version from the CVE description.
- Until patched, consider restricting network access or disabling the affected feature where operationally safe. These are temporary controls, not a substitute for a vendor fix.
- Validate the remediation with a version check and vulnerability rescan, then retain change evidence.
No fixed version is displayed unless it is explicitly established by a vendor advisory. Follow the vendor's release notes for exact product and branch applicability.
