| Vector | AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:L |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions:
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description:
The issue is related to a potential hang in the
nilfs detach log writer() function called during nilfs2 unmount. Analysis revealed that this is because nilfs segctor sync(), which synchronizes with the log writer thread, can be called after nilfs segctor destroy() terminates that thread. This can lead to a deadlock. The problem is fixed by changing nilfs segctor sync() so that the log writer thread returns normally without synchronizing after it terminates, and by forcing tasks that are already waiting to complete once after the thread terminates.Recommendations:
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
