In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: futex/requeue: Prevent NULL pointer dereference in remove_waiter() on self-deadlock When FUTEX_CMP_REQUEUE_PI requeues a non-top waiter that already owns the target PI futex, task_blocks_on_rt_mutex() returns -EDEADLK before setting waiter->task. The subsequent remove_waiter() in rt_mutex_start_proxy_lock() dereferences the NULL waiter->task, causing a kernel crash. Add a self-deadlock check for non-top waiters before calling rt_mutex_start_proxy_lock(), analogous to the top-waiter check in futex_lock_pi_atomic().
