In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: mt7921s: fix potential hung tasks during chip recovery
During chip recovery (e.g. chip reset), there is a possible situation that
kernel worker reset_work is holding the lock and waiting for kernel thread
stat_worker to be parked, while stat_worker is waiting for the release of
the same lock.
It causes a deadlock resulting in the dumping of hung tasks messages and
possible rebooting of the device.
This patch prevents the execution of stat_worker during the chip recovery.
A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's mt76 driver for the mt7921s chip, where a potential deadlock could occur during chip recovery. This situation arises when the kernel worker reset_work holds a lock while waiting for the stat_worker thread, which is simultaneously waiting for the same lock to be released, which leads to hung tasks and may even result in device reboots.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options do not meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
