Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> io_uring/kbuf: reallocate buf lists on upgrade<br /> <br /> IORING_REGISTER_PBUF_RING can reuse an old struct io_buffer_list if it<br /> was created for legacy selected buffer and has been emptied. It violates<br /> the requirement that most of the field should stay stable after publish.<br /> Always reallocate it instead.
