In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
hwmon: (occ) unregister sysfs devices outside occ lock
occ_active(false) and occ_shutdown() unregister sysfs-backed devices while occ->lock is held. hwmon_device_unregister() and sysfs_remove_group() can wait for active sysfs callbacks to drain, and those callbacks can enter the OCC update path and try to take occ->lock again. That gives the unregister paths the lock ordering occ->lock -> sysfs callback drain, while a callback has the opposite edge sysfs callback -> occ->lock.
This issue was found by our static analysis tool and then manually reviewed against the current tree.
The grounded PoC kept the real unregister and callback carrier:
occ_shutdown() hwmon_device_unregister() occ_show_temp_1() occ_update_response()
Lockdep reported the circular dependency with occ_shutdown() already holding the OCC mutex and hwmon_device_unregister() waiting on the sysfs side:
