ubottuIn the Linux kernel before 5.17.3, fs/io_uring.c has a use-after-free due to a race condition in io_uring timeouts. This can be triggered by a local user who has no access to any user namespace; however, the race condition perhaps can only be exploited infrequently. <https://cve.mitre.org/cgi-bin/cvename.cgi?name=CVE-2022-29582>09:30
