CVE-2025-39941

Estado: ModificadaMedia (4.7)—

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

zram: fix slot write race condition

Parallel concurrent writes to the same zram index result in leaked zsmalloc handles. Schematically we can have something like this:

CPU0 CPU1 zram_slot_lock() zs_free(handle) zram_slot_lock() zram_slot_lock() zs_free(handle) zram_slot_lock()

compress compress handle = zs_malloc() handle = zs_malloc() zram_slot_lock zram_set_handle(handle) zram_slot_lock zram_slot_lock zram_set_handle(handle) zram_slot_lock

Either CPU0 or CPU1 zsmalloc handle will leak because zs_free() is done too early. In fact, we need to reset zram entry right before we set its new handle, all under the same slot lock scope.
