In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
RDMA/iwcm: Fix WARNING:at_kernel/workqueue.c:#check_flush_dependency
In the commit aee2424246f9 ("RDMA/iwcm: Fix a use-after-free related to
destroying CM IDs"), the function flush_workqueue is invoked to flush the
work queue iwcm_wq.
But at that time, the work queue iwcm_wq was created via the function
alloc_ordered_workqueue without the flag WQ_MEM_RECLAIM.
Because the current process is trying to flush the whole iwcm_wq, if
iwcm_wq doesn't have the flag WQ_MEM_RECLAIM, verify that the current
process is not reclaiming memory or running on a workqueue which doesn't
have the flag WQ_MEM_RECLAIM as that can break forward-progress guarantee
leading to a deadlock.
The call trace is as below:

A denial of service (DoS) vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel. The flush_workqueue function is invoked to flush the iwcm_wq work queue, but at that time, the iwcm_wq work queue is created via the alloc_ordered_workqueue function without the WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag. Since the current process is trying to flush the whole iwcm_wq, if iwcm_wq doesn't have the WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag, a work queue which doesn't have the WQ_MEM_RECLAIM flag can break forward-progress guarantee, leading to a deadlock.
Отчет
This vulnerability results in a deadlock condition; it cannot be used to exploit confidentiality or integrity of the system and can only lead to denial of service, which is why CVSS has been marked as such.
Меры по смягчению последствий
Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options don't meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stability.
