  "description": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  smack: fix cred UAF in smack_file_send_sigiotask()  When inspecting the credentials of another task, objective credentials (-\u003Ereal_cred, accessed with __task_cred()) must always be used.  Accessing -\u003Ecred on a non-current task is forbidden unless that task is being created or destroyed; a task is allowed to change its own -\u003Ecred pointer with no synchronization, and changing -\u003Ecred should only affect the current syscall.  smack_file_send_sigiotask() was accessing both sets of credentials: First tsk-\u003Ecred, then __task_cred(tsk).  Fix it, always access the objective credentials here.  I have tested that this bug can lead to a KASAN-reported UAF of struct cred in smack_file_send_sigiotask(), and that this fix prevents the race.",
