There is no fixed version for RHEL:10 rv.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rv package and not the rv package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

io_uring/rsrc: don't rely on user vaddr alignment

There is no guaranteed alignment for user pointers, however the calculation of an offset of the first page into a folio after coalescing uses some weird bit mask logic, get rid of it.
