In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
rcutorture: Fix rcutorture_one_extend_check() splat in RT kernels
For built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y kernels, running rcutorture
tests resulted in the following splat:

Disable BH does not change the SOFTIRQ corresponding bits in
preempt_count() for RT kernels, this commit therefore use
softirq_count() to check the if BH is disabled.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel. When running rcutorture tests on systems built with CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT=y (Real-Time) kernels, a local user could trigger a kernel warning or crash, also known as a 'splat'. This occurs because the rcutorture_one_extend_check() function incorrectly uses preempt_count() instead of softirq_count() to verify if Bottom Half (BH) processing is disabled, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS).
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, prevent the rcutorture kernel module from loading. This can be achieved by blacklisting the module.
Create a file /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-rcutorture.conf with the following content:
blacklist rcutorture
After creating the file, regenerate the initramfs and reboot the system for the changes to take effect:
dracut -f -v
reboot
This mitigation may impact kernel development or testing environments that rely on the rcutorture module. A system reboot is required for the changes to take effect.
