In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
binder: fix is_failure flag for superseded transaction cleanup
When a TF_UPDATE_TXN transaction supersedes a pending async transaction,
binder_release_entire_buffer() is called with is_failure=false. Since the
superseded transaction was never delivered, binder_apply_fd_fixups() was
never called and no fds were installed in the target process.
With is_failure=false, the BINDER_TYPE_FDA cleanup handler interprets
stale buffer contents as installed fd numbers and passes them to
binder_deferred_fd_close(), closing unrelated file descriptors.
Pass is_failure=true since the transaction was never delivered to the
target, matching the semantics of all other undelivered-transaction
cleanup paths.
