Details
A vulnerability was found in Linux Kernel up to 6.11.6. It has been classified as critical. This affects the function ufshcd_rpm_put_sync of the component scsi. The manipulation with an unknown input leads to a deadlock vulnerability. CWE is classifying the issue as CWE-833. The product contains multiple threads or executable segments that are waiting for each other to release a necessary lock, resulting in deadlock. This is going to have an impact on availability. The summary by CVE is:
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: scsi: ufs: core: Fix another deadlock during RTC update If ufshcd_rtc_work calls ufshcd_rpm_put_sync() and the pm's usage_count is 0, we will enter the runtime suspend callback. However, the runtime suspend callback will wait to flush ufshcd_rtc_work, causing a deadlock. Replace ufshcd_rpm_put_sync() with ufshcd_rpm_put() to avoid the deadlock.
