In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io uring/rw: free potentially allocated iovec on cache put failure
If a read/write request goes through io req rw cleanup() and has an allocated iovec attached and fails to put to the rw cache, then it may end up with an unaccounted iovec pointer. Have io rw recycle() return whether it recycled the request or not, and use that to gauge whether to free a potential iovec or not.
