Medium (5.5) in linux linux kernel. EPSS 0.10% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing: Fix potential deadlock in cpu hotplug with osnoise
The following sequence may leads deadlock in cpu hotplug:
task1 task2 task3
----- ----- -----
mutex_lock(&interface_lock)
[CPU GOING OFFLINE]
cpus_write_lock();
osnoise_cpu_die();
kthread_stop(task3);
wait_for_completion();
osnoise_sleep();
mutex_lock(&interface_lock);
cpus_read_lock();
[DEAD LOCK]
Fix by swap the order of cpus_read_lock() and mutex_lock(&interface_lock).
