Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux kernel (affected versions not specified) Description: The issue arises when a pmem device is in a bad status, causing the driver side to wait for host ack forever in `virtio pmem flush()`, which can lead to the system hanging. A status check has been added to the beginning of `virtio pmem flush()` to return early if the device is not activated. Recommendations: At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
