In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: io_uring/fdinfo: grab ctx->uring_lock around io_uring_show_fdinfo() Not everything requires locking in there, which is why the 'has_lock' variable exists. But enough does that it's a bit unwieldy to manage. Wrap the whole thing in a ->uring_lock trylock, and just return with no output if we fail to grab it. The existing trylock() will already have greatly diminished utility/output for the failure case. This fixes an issue with reading the SQE fields, if the ring is being actively resized at the same time.
Add your gear to cvedb and we'll alert you only when linux ships something exploited.
