Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
watchdog: unregister PM notifier on watchdog unregister
watchdog_register_device() registers wdd->pm_nb when
WDOG_NO_PING_ON_SUSPEND is set, but watchdog_unregister_device() does not
remove it. This leaves an embedded notifier block on the PM notifier chain
after the watchdog device has been unregistered.
A later suspend/resume notification can then call watchdog_pm_notifier()
with a stale watchdog_device pointer, or at minimum after wdd->wd_data has
been cleared by watchdog_dev_unregister().
Unregister the PM notifier before tearing down the watchdog device.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's watchdog subsystem. When a watchdog device is unregistered, its Power Management (PM) notifier may not be properly removed. This can lead to a stale pointer being used during a subsequent suspend/resume operation, potentially causing system instability or a denial of service.
