CVE-2026-43006

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

io_uring/rsrc: reject zero-length fixed buffer import

validate_fixed_range() admits buf_addr at the exact end of the
registered region when len is zero, because the check uses strict
greater-than (buf_end > imu->ubuf + imu->len). io_import_fixed()
then computes offset == imu->len, which causes the bvec skip logic
to advance past the last bio_vec entry and read bv_offset from
out-of-bounds slab memory.

Return early from io_import_fixed() when len is zero. A zero-length
import has no data to transfer and should not walk the bvec array
at all.
