Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel has been resolved. The issue occurs when waking up a suspended virtual machine (VM), causing the kernel to print a trace for virtio drivers that do not directly call
virtio device ready() in the .restore function. This happens because the .enable cbs callback is not invoked in virtio device restore(), which is used by some transports to enable interrupts. The fix involves calling virtio device ready() to set the DRIVER OK status bit and avoid setting it twice for certain drivers.Recommendations
To resolve the issue, update the Linux kernel to a version that includes the fix, which involves calling
virtio device ready() in virtio device restore() to ensure proper handling of virtio drivers after a suspended VM is resumed.
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.Exploit
