UBUNTU-CVE-2023-1078

A flaw was found in the Linux Kernel in RDS Reliable Datagram Sockets protocol. The rdsrmzerocopycallback uses listentry on the head of a list causing a type confusion. Local user can trigger this with rdsmessageput. Type confusion leads to struct rdsmsgzcopyinfo info actually points to something...
