--- title: "CVE-2022-4696\n | Ubuntu" description: Ubuntu is an open source software operating system that runs from the desktop, to the cloud, to all your internet connected things. url: https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2022-4696?format=md keywords: index, follow --- # CVE-2022-4696 Publication date 11 January 2023 Last updated 4 July 2026 --- Ubuntu priority **High** [Why this priority?](https://ubuntu.com/security/cves/about#priority ) ## Cvss 3 Severity Score **7.8 · High** [Score breakdown](https://ubuntu.com/security/CVE-2022-4696?format=md#impact-score) Toggle side navigation ## Description There exists a use-after-free vulnerability in the Linux kernel through io\_uring and the IORING\_OP\_SPLICE operation. If IORING\_OP\_SPLICE is missing the IO\_WQ\_WORK\_FILES flag, which signals that the operation won't use current->nsproxy, so its reference counter is not increased. This assumption is not always true as calling io\_splice on specific files will call the get\_uts function which will use current->nsproxy leading to invalidly decreasing its reference counter later causing the use-after-free vulnerability. We recommend upgrading to version 5.10.160 or above ### From the Ubuntu Security Team It was discovered that a use-after-free vulnerability existed in the io\_uring subsystem in the Linux kernel. A local attacker could possibly use this to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code. ## Status Show unmaintained releases | Package | Ubuntu Release | Status | |
