CVE-2025-39721

Estado: ModificadaMedia (5.5)—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

crypto: qat - flush misc workqueue during device shutdown

Repeated loading and unloading of a device specific QAT driver, for example qat_4xxx, in a tight loop can lead to a crash due to a use-after-free scenario. This occurs when a power management (PM) interrupt triggers just before the device-specific driver (e.g., qat_4xxx.ko) is unloaded, while the core driver (intel_qat.ko) remains loaded.

Since the driver uses a shared workqueue (`qat_misc_wq`) across all devices and owned by intel_qat.ko, a deferred routine from the device-specific driver may still be pending in the queue.

If this routine executes after the driver is unloaded, it can dereference freed memory, resulting in a page fault and kernel crash like the following:

To prevent this, flush the misc workqueue during device shutdown to ensure that all pending work items are completed before the driver is unloaded.

Note: This approach may slightly increase shutdown latency if the workqueue contains jobs from other devices, but it ensures correctness and stability.
