Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
dmaengine: idxd: fix possible wrong descriptor completion in llist_abort_desc()<br />
<br />
At the end of this function, d is the traversal cursor of flist, but the<br />
code completes found instead. This can lead to issues such as NULL pointer<br />
dereferences, double completion, or descriptor leaks.<br />
<br />
Fix this by completing d instead of found in the final<br />
list_for_each_entry_safe() loop.
