"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nio_uring/zcrx: fix user_ref race between scrub and refill paths\n\nThe io_zcrx_put_niov_uref() function uses a non-atomic\ncheck-then-decrement pattern (atomic_read followed by separate\natomic_dec) to manipulate user_refs. This is serialized against other\ncallers by rq_lock, but io_zcrx_scrub() modifies the same counter with\natomic_xchg() WITHOUT holding rq_lock.\n\nOn SMP systems, the following race exists:\n\n CPU0 (refill, holds rq_lock) CPU1 (scrub, no rq_lock)\n put_niov_uref:\n atomic_read(uref) - 1\n // window opens\n atomic_xchg(uref, 0) - 1\n return_niov_freelist(niov) [PUSH #1]\n // window closes\n atomic_dec(uref) - wraps to -1\n returns true\n return_niov(niov)\n return_niov_freelist(niov) [PUSH #2: DOUBLE-FREE]\n\nThe same niov is pushed to the freelist twice, causing free_count to\nexceed nr_iovs. Subsequent freelist pushes then perform an out-of-bounds\nwrite (a u32 value) past the kvmalloc'd freelist array into the adjacent\nslab object.\n\nFix this by replacing the non-atomic read-then-dec in\nio_zcrx_put_niov_uref() with an atomic_try_cmpxchg loop that atomically\ntests and decrements user_refs. This makes the operation safe against\nconcurrent atomic_xchg from scrub without requiring scrub to acquire\nrq_lock.\n\n[pavel: removed a warning and a comment]"
