The Red Hat security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for RHEL:10.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream rv package and not the rv package as distributed by RHEL.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
driver core: fix potential NULL pointer dereference in dev_uevent()
If userspace reads "uevent" device attribute at the same time as another threads unbinds the device from its driver, change to dev->driver from a valid pointer to NULL may result in crash. Fix this by using READ_ONCE() when fetching the pointer, and take bus' drivers klist lock to make sure driver instance will not disappear while we access it.
Use WRITE_ONCE() when setting the driver pointer to ensure there is no tearing.
