CVE-2025-38445
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
md/raid1: Fix stack memory use after return in raid1_reshape
In the raid1_reshape function, newpool is allocated on the stack and assigned to conf->r1bio_pool. This results in conf->r1bio_pool.wait.head pointing to a stack address. Accessing this address later can lead to a kernel panic.
Example access path:
Fix: reinit conf->r1bio_pool.wait after assigning newpool.

{
// newpool is on the stack
