In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ACPI: EC: Fix oops when removing custom query handlers
When removing custom query handlers, the handler might still
be used inside the EC query workqueue, causing a kernel oops
if the module holding the callback function was already unloaded.
Fix this by flushing the EC query workqueue when removing
custom query handlers.
Tested on a Acer Travelmate 4002WLMi
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's ACPI Embedded Controller (EC) subsystem. When removing custom query handlers, a kernel oops can occur if the handler is still being executed in the EC query workqueue while the module containing the callback function is being unloaded. The fix ensures the workqueue is flushed before handler removal.
Отчет
This bug requires a race condition between module unloading and EC query handler execution, which typically involves administrative operations. Since triggering the oops depends on specific timing during module removal, the attack surface is limited to privileged local users performing driver management tasks.
