Resolved Date: Jul 14, 2024
Found In Version: 10.23.30.1
Fix Version: 10.23.30.12
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 23
Component/s: Kernel
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net/mlx5: Always stop health timer during driver removal
Currently, if teardown_hca fails to execute during driver removal, mlx5
does not stop the health timer. Afterwards, mlx5 continue with driver
teardown. This may lead to a UAF bug, which results in page fault
Oops1], since the health timer invokes after resources were freed.
Hence, stop the health monitor even if teardown_hca fails.
