Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
idpf: fix read_dev_clk_lock spinlock init in idpf_ptp_init()
In idpf_ptp_init(), read_dev_clk_lock is initialized after
ptp_schedule_worker() had already been called (and after
idpf_ptp_settime64() could reach the lock). The PTP aux worker
fires immediately upon scheduling and can call into
idpf_ptp_read_src_clk_reg_direct(), which takes
spin_lock(&ptp->read_dev_clk_lock) on an uninitialized lock, triggering
the lockdep "non-static key" warning:
[12973.796587] idpf 0000:83:00.0: Device HW Reset initiated

Move the call to spin_lock_init() up a bit to make sure read_dev_clk_lock
is not touched before it's been initialized.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Intel Ethernet controller driver (idpf). This vulnerability occurs because a critical synchronization mechanism, known as a spinlock, is accessed before it has been properly initialized. An attacker could potentially exploit this timing issue to cause the system to become unstable or crash, leading to a Denial of Service (DoS).
Меры по смягчению последствий
If the Intel Ethernet PTP functionality is not required, the idpf kernel module can be blacklisted to prevent it from loading. This can be achieved by creating a modprobe configuration file.
- Create a file named
/etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-idpf.confwith the following content:
- Regenerate the initramfs to ensure the blacklist is applied during boot:
- For systems using Dracut:
dracut -f -v - For systems using mkinitcpio:
mkinitcpio -P
- Reboot the system for the changes to take effect. This mitigation may impact systems that rely on Intel Ethernet PTP for time synchronization.
