NVD Description

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

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

espintcp: Fix race condition in espintcp_close()

This issue was discovered during a code audit.

After cancel_work_sync() is called from espintcp_close(), espintcp_tx_work() can still be scheduled from paths such as the Delayed ACK handler or ksoftirqd. As a result, the espintcp_tx_work() worker may dereference a freed espintcp ctx or sk.

The following is a simple race scenario:

       cpu0                             cpu1

espintcp_close() cancel_work_sync(&ctx->work); espintcp_write_space() schedule_work(&ctx->work);

To prevent this race condition, cancel_work_sync() is replaced with disable_work_sync().
