LIN1023-11638 : Security Advisory - linux - CVE-2025-21832

Created: Mar 6, 2025    Updated: Mar 24, 2025
Resolved Date: Mar 24, 2025
Found In Version: 10.23.30.1
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 23
Component/s: Kernel

Description

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

block: don't revert iter for -EIOCBQUEUED

blkdev_read_iter() has a few odd checks, like gating the position and
count adjustment on whether or not the result is bigger-than-or-equal to
zero (where bigger than makes more sense), and not checking the return
value of blkdev_direct_IO() before doing an iov_iter_revert(). The
latter can lead to attempting to revert with a negative value, which
when passed to iov_iter_revert() as an unsigned value will lead to
throwing a WARN_ON() because unroll is bigger than MAX_RW_COUNT.

Be sane and don't revert for -EIOCBQUEUED, like what is done in other
spots.
