[PATCH] fs/aio: fix uaf in sys_io_cancel

From: Edward Adam Davis
Date: Sun Mar 03 2024 - 07:21:37 EST


The aio poll work aio_poll_complete_work() need to be synchronized with syscall
io_cancel(). Otherwise, when poll work executes first, syscall may access the
released aio_kiocb object.

Fixes: 54cbc058d86b ("fs/aio: Make io_cancel() generate completions again")
