How to fix?

There is no fixed version for RHEL:10 kernel-zfcpdump-core.

NVD Description

Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-zfcpdump-core package and not the kernel-zfcpdump-core package as distributed by RHEL. See How to fix? for RHEL:10 relevant fixed versions and status.

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

sunrpc: route to a populated pool in svc_pool_for_cpu()

svc_set_num_threads() spreads the requested threads evenly across the service's pools (base = nrservs / sv_nrpools). When a service runs fewer threads than it has pools -- e.g. an nfsd configured with fewer threads than the host has NUMA nodes while running in "pernode" or "percpu" mode -- the trailing pools are left with no threads at all.

svc_xprt_enqueue() selects a pool from the CPU servicing the transport, queues the transport on that pool's sp_xprts, and only wakes a thread from the same pool. Each thread services exclusively its own pool, so a transport that lands on a threadless pool is enqueued on sp_xprts and never picked up: the connection hangs indefinitely.

Have svc_pool_for_cpu() skip pools that currently have no threads, falling back to the next populated pool. This trades NUMA locality for a guarantee that the work is actually serviced. sp_nrthreads is only updated under the service mutex; the lockless read here is a best-effort routing hint, so annotate it with data_race().
