| 2024-04-03 | CVE-2024-26767 | Infinite Loop vulnerability in Linux Kernel In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/amd/display: fixed integer types and null check locations [why]: issues fixed: - comparison with wider integer type in loop condition which can cause infinite loops - pointer dereference before null check | 5.5 |
| 2024-04-02 | CVE-2023-52635 | Infinite Loop vulnerability in multiple products 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.
