CVE-2022-50234 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Red Hat security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for RHEL:6.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel package and not the kernel package as distributed by RHEL.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/af_unix: defer registered files gc to io_uring release
Instead of putting io_uring's registered files in unix_gc() we want it to be done by io_uring itself. The trick here is to consider io_uring registered files for cycle detection but not actually putting them down. Because io_uring can't register other ring instances, this will remove all refs to the ring file triggering the ->release path and clean up with io_ring_ctx_free().
