In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: tcpm: move tcpm_queue_vdm_unlocked to asynchronous work A state check was previously added to tcpm_queue_vdm_unlocked to prevent a deadlock where the DisplayPort Alt Mode driver would be executing work and attempting to grab the tcpm_lock while the TCPM was holding the lock and attempting to unregister the altmode, blocking on the altmode driver's cancel_work_sync call. Because the state check isn't protected, there is a small window where the Alt Mode driver could determine that the TCPM is in a ready state and attempt to grab the lock while the TCPM grabs the lock and changes the TCPM state to one that causes the deadlock.

This requires a new struct to hold the vdm data, altmode_vdm_event.
Отчет
A race condition in the USB Type-C Port Manager (TCPM) driver (tcpm_queue_vdm_unlocked) may lead to a kernel deadlock during concurrent altmode VDM operations and port reset/removal. This occurs because of insufficient locking guarantees when altmode work and TCPM state transitions race. A refactor was made to queue these operations asynchronously via kthread_work to safely serialize access and avoid holding conflicting locks. Exploiting this vulnerability requires high privileges because interaction with the TCPM subsystem and triggering of alternate mode operations can only be performed by processes with elevated capabilities (such as root or CAP_SYS_ADMIN).
