In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: Fix static_branch_dec() underflow for aql_disable.
syzbot reported static_branch_dec() underflow in aql_enable_write(). [0]
The problem is that aql_enable_write() does not serialise concurrent
write()s to the debugfs.
aql_enable_write() checks static_key_false(&aql_disable.key) and
later calls static_branch_inc() or static_branch_dec(), but the
state may change between the two calls.
aql_disable does not need to track inc/dec.
Let's use static_branch_enable() and static_branch_disable().

A flaw was found in the mac80211 Wi-Fi subsystem of the Linux kernel. A local user could exploit a race condition in the aql_enable_write() function, which does not properly handle concurrent write operations to the debug file system. This could lead to a static_branch_dec() underflow, resulting in a kernel warning and potentially a system soft lockup, causing a Denial of Service (DoS).
Отчет
This Moderate flaw in the Linux kernel's mac80211 Wi-Fi subsystem allows a local attacker to trigger a denial of service. By exploiting a race condition in the aql_enable_write() function through concurrent write operations to the debug file system, a kernel warning and system soft lockup can occur. This issue requires local access to the system.
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.
