Doc Text:	A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel, where improper handling of block I/O requests when a block I/O request (bio) is not tracked, the kernel erroneously calls the rq_qos_ops->done_bio function, potentially leading to use-after-free issues. This situation can occurr when the request queue is accessed after it has been freed, resulting in possible kernel panic.	Story Points:	---

Comment 4 Alex 2024-06-09 15:40:23 UTC

The result of automatic check (that is developed by Alexander Larkin) for this CVE-2021-47412 is: CHECK	Maybe valid. Check manually. with impact MODERATE (that is approximation based on flags DANGER  ; these flags parsed automatically based on patche data). Such automatic check happens only for Low/Moderates (and only when not from reporter, but parsing already existing CVE). Highs always checked manually (I check it myself and then we check it again in Remediation team). In rare cases some of the Moderates could be increased to High later.
