Descriptions

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

PM / devfreq: Synchronize devfreq_monitor_[start/stop]

There is a chance if a frequent switch of the governor
done in a loop result in timer list corruption where
timer cancel being done from two place one from
cancel_delayed_work_sync() and followed by expire_timers()
can be seen from the traces[1].

while true
do
echo "simple_ondemand" > /sys/class/devfreq/1d84000.ufshc/governor
echo "performance" > /sys/class/devfreq/1d84000.ufshc/governor
done

It looks to be issue with devfreq driver where
device_monitor_[start/stop] need to synchronized so that
delayed work should get corrupted while it is either
being queued or running or being cancelled.

Let's use polling flag and devfreq lock to synchronize the
queueing the timer instance twice and work data being
corrupted.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: PM / devfreq: Sincronizar devfreq_monitor_[start/stop] Existe la posibilidad de que un cambio frecuente del gobernador realizado en un bucle provoque corrupción en la lista de temporizadores, donde la cancelación del temporizador se realiza desde dos coloque uno de cancel_delayed_work_sync() y seguido de expire_timers() se puede ver en los rastros [1]. mientras que es verdadero, haga echo "simple_ondemand" > /sys/class/devfreq/1d84000.ufshc/governor echo "rendimiento" > /sys/class/devfreq/1d84000.ufshc/governor done Parece ser un problema con el controlador devfreq donde device_monitor_[start /stop] debe sincronizarse para que el trabajo retrasado se corrompa mientras está en cola, ejecutándose o cancelándose. Usemos el indicador de sondeo y el bloqueo devfreq para sincronizar la cola de la instancia del temporizador dos veces y los datos de trabajo que se corrompen.
