Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-10-21 15:32 – Updated: 2025-11-04 00:31

Details

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

padata: use integer wrap around to prevent deadlock on seq_nr overflow

When submitting more than 2^32 padata objects to padata_do_serial, the current sorting implementation incorrectly sorts padata objects with overflowed seq_nr, causing them to be placed before existing objects in the reorder list. This leads to a deadlock in the serialization process as padata_find_next cannot match padata->seq_nr and pd->processed because the padata instance with overflowed seq_nr will be selected next.

To fix this, we use an unsigned integer wrap around to correctly sort padata objects in scenarios with integer overflow.

Severity ?

5.5 (Medium)

This leads to a deadlock in the serialization process\nas padata_find_next cannot match padata-\u003eseq_nr and pd-\u003eprocessed\nbecause the padata instance with overflowed seq_nr will be selected\nnext.\n\nTo fix this, we use an unsigned integer wrap around to correctly sort\npadata objects in scenarios with integer overflow."
