Description SMASH SMASH 2024-03-18 08:33:51 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

io_uring: fix link timeout refs

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 10242 at lib/refcount.c:28 refcount_warn_saturate+0x15b/0x1a0 lib/refcount.c:28
RIP: 0010:refcount_warn_saturate+0x15b/0x1a0 lib/refcount.c:28
Call Trace:

 __se_sys_io_uring_enter+0x256/0x1d60 fs/io_uring.c:9182

io_link_timeout_fn() should put only one reference of the linked timeout
request, however in case of racing with the master request's completion
first io_req_complete() puts one and then io_put_req_deferred() is
called.
