Summary
[none]
Details

A use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux Kernel iouring subsystem can be exploited to achieve local privilege escalation. Both ioinstallfixedfile and its callers call fput in a file in case of an error, causing a reference underflow which leads to a use-after-free vulnerability. We recommend upgrading past commit 9d94c04c0db024922e886c9fd429659f22f48ea4.
