In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
vduse: return compat ioctl results directly
The compat handler handles VDUSE IOTLB GET FD and VDUSE VQ GET INFO, but
then calls the native handler. Their different command sizes make native
dispatch return -ENOIOCTLCMD.
For GET FD, this overwrites receive fd()'s return value after the
descriptor is installed, leaking one fd per call. Return handled compat
results directly and use native dispatch only for other commands.
