      "title": "fuse-uring: end fuse_req on io-uring cancel task work",
      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nfuse-uring: end fuse_req on io-uring cancel task work\n\nWhen io_uring delivers task work with tw.cancel set (PF_EXITING,\nPF_KTHREAD fallback, or percpu_ref_is_dying on the ring context),\nfuse_uring_send_in_task() takes the cancel branch, assigns\n-ECANCELED, and falls through to fuse_uring_send(). That path only\nflips the entry to FRRS_USERSPACE and completes the io_uring cmd;\nit never discharges the ring entry's owning reference to the\nfuse_req that fuse_uring_add_req_to_ring_ent() handed it at\ndispatch time.\n\n    fuse_uring_send_in_task()\n      tw.cancel == true\n        err = -ECANCELED\n      fuse_uring_send(ent, cmd, err, issue_flags)\n        ent->state = FRRS_USERSPACE\n        list_move(&ent->list, &queue->ent_in_userspace)\n        ent->cmd = NULL\n        io_uring_cmd_done(-ECANCELED)\n        /* ent->fuse_req still set, req still hashed */\n\nThe fuse_req stays linked on fpq->processing[hash] and\nfuse_request_end() is never invoked. The originating syscall\nthread blocks in D-state in request_wait_answer() until\nfuse_abort_conn() runs, which can be the entire connection\nlifetime. For FR_BACKGROUND requests fc->num_background is never\ndecremented either, so repeated cancels inflate the counter until\nmax_background is hit and all later background ops stall. tw.cancel does\nnot imply a connection abort (e.g. a single io_uring worker thread exits\nwhile the fuse connection stays up), so this cannot be left for\nfuse_abort_conn() to clean up.\n\nEnding the req but still routing the entry through fuse_uring_send()\nis not enough: that leaves a req-less entry on ent_in_userspace, and\nent_list_request_expired() dereferences ent->fuse_req unconditionally\non the head of that list, which would then NULL-deref.\n\nFix the cancel branch to release the entry directly. Remove it from the\nqueue, complete the io_uring cmd, end the fuse_req, free the entry, and\ndrop its queue_refs (waking the teardown waiter if it was the last).",
