"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nio_uring/net: ensure vectored buffer node import is tied to notification\n\nWhen support for vectored registered buffers was added, the import\nitself is using 'req' rather than the notification io_kiocb, sr->notif.\nFor non-vectored imports, sr->notif is correctly used. This is important\nas the lifetime of the two may be different. Use the correct io_kiocb\nfor the vectored buffer import."

"scenarios": [
{
"lang": "en",
"value": "AV:L - Exploitation requires a local process to submit an IORING_OP_SENDMSG_ZC operation through io_uring; incoming network traffic alone cannot reach the vulnerable import path.\nAC:L - The attacker controls buffer registration, the vectored send, notification lifetime, and buffer unregistration or replacement. A corked, congested, or deliberately stalled socket can reliably keep the notification outstanding after the main request completes.\nPR:L - An ordinary unprivileged user can create an io_uring instance, register their own memory, and use TCP or UDP sockets without capabilities when io_uring is enabled under its default policy.\nUI:N - No action by another user is required after the attacker submits the operations and manipulates the registered-buffer lifetime.\nS:U - Any resulting kernel compromise is a conventional local privilege escalation within the host kernel's security authority, not a mandatory cross-scope escape.\nC:H - The premature unpin permits network transmission to continue reading pages after they have been freed or recycled, potentially disclosing arbitrary kernel or other-process memory to an attacker-controlled peer.\nI:H - The stale managed fragments can cause page-reference and allocator corruption when subsequently referenced or downgraded, providing a use-after-free-class primitive that can plausibly be developed into arbitrary memory modification or kernel code execution.\nA:H - Accessing or changing references on prematurely released pages can trigger kernel faults, allocator corruption, oopses, or a system panic."
