Memory corruption

The biomapuseriov and biounmapuser functions in block/bio.c in the Linux kernel before 4.13.8 do unbalanced refcounting when a SCSI I/O vector has small consecutive buffers belonging to the same page. The bioaddpcpage function merges them into one, but the page reference is never dropped. This...
