"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
futex: Prevent use-after-free during requeue-PI    syzbot managed to
trigger the following race:       T1                               T2

futex_hash_put()    // back to userland, on stack futex_q is garbage
/* back */
wake_up_state(q->task, TASK_NORMAL);    In this scenario
futex_wait_requeue_pi() is able to leave without using
futex_q::lock_ptr for synchronization.    This can be prevented by
reading futex_q::task before updating the  futex_q::requeue_state. A
reference on the task_struct is not needed  because
requeue_pi_wake_futex() is invoked with a spinlock_t held which
implies a RCU read section.    Even if T1 terminates immediately
after, the task_struct will remain valid  during T2's wake_up_state().
A READ_ONCE on futex_q::task before  futex_requeue_pi_complete() is
enough because it ensures that the variable  is read before the state
is updated.    Read futex_q::task before updating the requeue state,
use it for the  following wakeup.
