Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A deadlock issue has been identified in the Linux kernel, specifically between the
pci dev lock() function and the sriov numvfs store() path. The sriov numvfs store() path acquires the device lock before the config space access lock, while pci dev lock() previously acquired the config space access lock before the device lock. This could lead to a deadlock if the operations occur in a specific sequence. The issue has been resolved by reversing the order in pci dev lock() to acquire the device lock before the config space access lock.Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
