Vulnerability from github
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
nbd: Fix NULL pointer in flush_workqueue
Open /dev/nbdX first, the config_refs will be 1 and the pointers in nbd_device are still null. Disconnect /dev/nbdX, then reference a null recv_workq. The protection by config_refs in nbd_genl_disconnect is useless.
