Linux · Linux Kernel · CVE-2022-49411
**Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions**
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
**Description**
A use after free issue was found in the Linux kernel's BFQ IO scheduler. This occurs when a bio is associated with a cgroup that has already been offlined, leading to the insertion of a `bfq group` into a service tree. Once the last bio associated with this `bfq group` is completed, the `bfq group` is freed, causing issues for service tree users. The problem is resolved by ensuring that operations are only performed on online `bfq group` instances. If the associated `bfq group` is not online, the first online parent is selected instead.
**Recommendations**
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
