Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sfc: fix deadlock in RSS config read
Since cited commit, core locks the net_device's rss_lock when handling
ethtool -x command, so driver's implementation should not lock it
again. Remove the latter.
A deadlock vulnerability was found in the Solarflare (sfc) network driver. When reading RSS configuration via ethtool -x, the driver attempts to acquire the rss_lock that is already held by the networking core, causing a deadlock and system hang.
Отчет
This deadlock affects systems with Solarflare NICs when querying RSS settings via ethtool. Any local user with access to network configuration can trigger the hang. The fix is straightforward — remove the redundant lock acquisition in the driver.
