Amendment

The AlmaLinux security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for AlmaLinux:10.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream libperf package and not the libperf package as distributed by AlmaLinux.

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

crypto: pcrypt - Call crypto layer directly when padata_do_parallel() return -EBUSY

Since commit 8f4f68e788c3 ("crypto: pcrypt - Fix hungtask for PADATA_RESET"), the pcrypt encryption and decryption operations return -EAGAIN when the CPU goes online or offline. In alg_test(), a WARN is generated when pcrypt_aead_decrypt() or pcrypt_aead_encrypt() returns -EAGAIN, the unnecessary panic will occur when panic_on_warn set 1. Fix this issue by calling crypto layer directly without parallelization in that case.
