A particularly tricky exploit in the linux futex implementation from 2014, by Pinkie Pie, https://issues.chromium.org/issues/40079619

"The requeue-once rule is enforced by only allowing requeueing to the futex previously passed to futex_wait_requeue_pi as uaddr2, so it's not possible to requeue from A to B, then from B to C - but it is possible to requeue from B to B.

When this happens, if (!q.rt_waiter) passes, so rt_mutex_finish_proxy_lock is never called. (Also, AFAIK, free_pi_state is never called, which is true even without this weird requeue; in the case where futex_requeue calls requeue_pi_wake_futex directly, pi_state will sit around until it gets cleaned up in exit_pi_state_list when the thread exits. This is not a vulnerability.) futex_wait_requeue_pi exits, and various pointers to rt_waiter become dangling. "
