In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/kbuf: check if target buffer list is still legacy on recycle
There's a gap between when the buffer was grabbed and when it
potentially gets recycled, where if the list is empty, someone could've
upgraded it to a ring provided type. This can happen if the request
is forced via io-wq. The legacy recycling is missing checking if the
buffer_list still exists, and if it's of the correct type. Add those
checks.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. A vulnerability exists in the io_uring/kbuf component related to buffer recycling. There is a time gap where a buffer list, if empty, could be incorrectly upgraded to a ring-provided type. The legacy recycling mechanism fails to properly check the buffer list's existence and type, which could lead to system instability or unexpected behavior.
Отчет
Red Hat acknowledges the upstream Linux kernel correction for «io_uring/kbuf» as described in COMMENT_ZERO. Fixes are delivered through standard kernel errata for supported products. Operational exposure depends on whether this subsystem or driver is active in your configuration.
