It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2021-47569 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.\n2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-47569/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-47569/index.md)","id":"CVE-2021-47569","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-47569/index.md","name":"CVE-2021-47569","record":{"aliases":["DEBIAN-CVE-2021-47569","UBUNTU-CVE-2021-47569"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A null pointer dereference in the Linux kernel io_uring subsystem allows local attackers to cause a system crash.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"null_dereference"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nio_uring: fail cancellation for EXITING tasks\n\nWARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 20 at fs/io_uring.c:6269 io_try_cancel_userdata+0x3c5/0x640 fs/io_uring.c:6269\nCPU: 1 PID: 20 Comm: kworker/1:0 Not tainted 5.16.0-rc1-syzkaller #0\nWorkqueue: events io_fallback_req_func\nRIP: 0010:io_try_cancel_userdata+0x3c5/0x640 fs/io_uring.c:6269\nCall Trace:\n \u003cTASK\u003e\n io_req_task_link_timeout+0x6b/0x1e0 fs/io_uring.c:6886\n io_fallback_req_func+0xf9/0x1ae fs/io_uring.c:1334\n process_one_work+0x9b2/0x1690 kernel/workqueue.c:2298\n worker_thread+0x658/0x11f0 kernel/workqueue.c:2445\n kthread+0x405/0x4f0 kernel/kthread.c:327\n ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30 arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:295\n \u003c/TASK\u003e\n\nWe need original task's context to do cancellations, so if it's dying\nand the callback is executed in a fallback mode, fail the cancellation\nattempt.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"io_uring: fail cancellation for EXITING tasks","id":"CVE-2021-47569","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"null_dereference","year":"2021"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":2,"next":{"headline":"staging: r8188eu: fix a memory leak in rtw_wx_read32()","id":"CVE-2021-47570"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"ksmbd: fix memleak in get_file_stream_info()","id":"CVE-2021-47568"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2024-05-24","related":[{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Out-of-Bounds Write","id":"CVE-2026-53266","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2026-06-25"},{"cvss_score":8.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Improper Input Validation","id":"CVE-2013-6282","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-11-19"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Heap-Based Buffer Overflow","id":"CVE-2022-0185","kev_date_added":"2024-08-21","published":"2022-02-11"},{"cvss_score":8.4,"headline":"Linux Kernel Privilege Escalation","id":"CVE-2013-2094","kev_date_added":"2022-09-15","published":"2013-05-14"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Unspecified","id":"CVE-2026-53362","kev_date_added":"2026-08-27","published":"2026-07-04"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Missing Initialization of a Variable","id":"CVE-2026-46300","kev_date_added":"2026-10-28","published":"2026-05-23"},{"cvss_score":7.8,"headline":"Linux Kernel Race Condition","id":"CVE-2025-39964","kev_date_added":"2026-09-18","published":"2025-10-13"}],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"US public information, NVD API terms","name":"NVD"},{"class":"attribution","licence":"FIRST CVSS licence","name":"CVSS (FIRST)"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":"no","exploitation":"none","technical_impact":"partial"},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-11","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A null pointer dereference in the Linux kernel io_uring subsystem allows local attackers to cause a system crash.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2021-47569/"}
