Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ublk: fix handling recovery & reissue in ublk_abort_queue()
Commit 8284066946e6 ("ublk: grab request reference when the request is handled
by userspace") doesn't grab request reference in case of recovery reissue.
Then the request can be requeued & re-dispatch & failed when canceling
uring command.
If it is one zc request, the request can be freed before io_uring
returns the zc buffer back, then cause kernel panic:
