Descriptions
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drivers: staging: rtl8192e: Fix deadlock in rtllib_beacons_stop() There is a deadlock in rtllib_beacons_stop(), which is shown
below: (Thread 1) | (Thread 2) | rtllib_send_beacon()
rtllib_beacons_stop() | mod_timer() spin_lock_irqsave() //(1) | (wait a time) ... | rtllib_send_beacon_cb() del_timer_sync() | spin_lock_irqsave() //(2) (wait timer to stop) | ... We hold ieee->beacon_lock in position (1) of thread 1 and
use del_timer_sync() to wait timer to stop, but timer handler
also need ieee->beacon_lock in position (2) of thread 2.
As a result, rtllib_beacons_stop() will block forever. This patch extracts del_timer_sync() from the protection of
spin_lock_irqsave(), which could let timer handler to obtain
the needed lock.
The SUSE Linux Enterprise 15 SP3 kernel was updated to receive various security bugfixes. The following security bugs were fixed.
