What to Know

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

dibs: initialise dibs->lock in dibs_dev_alloc()

dibs->lock is initialised by dibs_dev_add(), but a dibs device can

already take interrupts before that call: ism_probe() runs

ism_dev_init(), and hence request_irq(), before it calls

dibs_dev_add(). No client can have registered a dmb at that point, so

no dmb interrupt can occur, but a GID event interrupt can, and

ism_handle_irq() takes dibs->lock unconditionally on entry, before it

inspects anything else.

Initialise the lock in dibs_dev_alloc() instead, so that it is valid as

soon as a driver can publish the device to its interrupt handler. (NVD)

What to Do

Monitor Linux's web page for any future patch releases.
