{"id":"CVE-2024-50060","summary":"io_uring: check if we need to reschedule during overflow flush","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nio_uring: check if we need to reschedule during overflow flush\n\nIn terms of normal application usage, this list will always be empty.\nAnd if an application does overflow a bit, it'll have a few entries.\nHowever, nothing obviously prevents syzbot from running a test case\nthat generates a ton of overflow entries, and then flushing them can\ntake quite a while.\n\nCheck for needing to reschedule while flushing, and drop our locks and\ndo so if necessary. There's no state to maintain here as overflows\nalways prune from head-of-list, hence it's fine to drop and reacquire\nthe locks at the end of the loop.","modified":"2026-04-16T04:39:14.837592063Z","published":"2024-10-21T19:39:49.737Z","related":["ALSA-2025:20518","SUSE-SU-2024:3984-1","SUSE-SU-2024:3986-1","SUSE-SU-2024:4318-1","SUSE-SU-2024:4387-1","SUSE-SU-2025:20163-1","SUSE-SU-2025:20164-1","SUSE-SU-2025:20246-1","SUSE-SU-2025:20247-1","USN-7276-1","USN-7277-1","openSUSE-SU-2024:14500-1","openSUSE-SU-2025:14705-1"],"database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"Linux","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2024/50xxx/CVE-2024-50060.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a2493904e95ce94bbec819d8f7f03b99976eb25c"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c2eadeafce2d385b3f6d26a7f31fee5aba2bbbb0"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/eac2ca2d682f94f46b1973bdf5e77d85d77b8e53"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f4ce3b5d26ce149e77e6b8e8f2058aa80e5b034e"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2025/01/msg00001.html"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2024/50xxx/CVE-2024-50060.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2024-50060"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"2b188cc1bb857a9d4701ae59aa7768b5124e262e"},{"fixed":"a2493904e95ce94bbec819d8f7f03b99976eb25c"},{"fixed":"f4ce3b5d26ce149e77e6b8e8f2058aa80e5b034e"},{"fixed":"c2eadeafce2d385b3f6d26a7f31fee5aba2bbbb0"},{"fixed":"eac2ca2d682f94f46b1973bdf5e77d85d77b8e53"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2024-50060.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5"}
