Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-10-09 13:01:41 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

io_uring: fix incorrect io_kiocb reference in io_link_skb

In io_link_skb function, there is a bug where prev_notif is incorrectly
assigned using 'nd' instead of 'prev_nd'. This causes the context
validation check to compare the current notification with itself instead
of comparing it with the previous notification.

Fix by using the correct prev_nd parameter when obtaining prev_notif.
