CVE-2023-53031
Estado: AnalizadaMedia (5.5)—
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
powerpc/imc-pmu: Fix use of mutex in IRQs disabled section
Current imc-pmu code triggers a WARNING with CONFIG_DEBUG_ATOMIC_SLEEP and CONFIG_PROVE_LOCKING enabled, while running a thread_imc event.
Below is snippet of the warning in dmesg:
The above warning triggered because the current imc-pmu code uses mutex lock in interrupt disabled sections. The function mutex_lock() internally calls __might_resched(), which will check if IRQs are disabled and in case IRQs are disabled, it will trigger the warning.
Fix the issue by changing the mutex lock to spinlock.
