Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description
A deadlock can occur in the Linux kernel when an unmount operation is initiated while an async block group reclaim task is running and relocating a data block group. This happens because of a combination of factors, including the presence of an async metadata or data space reclaim task and the parking of the cleaner kthread during the close ctree() operation. The issue arises when the async space reclaim task runs all existing delayed iputs and the block group reclaim task creates a delayed iput, leading to a deadlock.
Recommendations
At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
