Descriptions
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tty: serial: fsl_lpuart: fix race on RX DMA shutdown From time to time DMA completion can come in the middle of DMA shutdown: <process ctx>: <IRQ>:
lpuart32_shutdown() lpuart_dma_shutdown() del_timer_sync() lpuart_dma_rx_complete() lpuart_copy_rx_to_tty() mod_timer() lpuart_dma_rx_free() When the timer fires a bit later, sport->dma_rx_desc is NULL: Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference at virtual address 0000000000000004
