Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2025-71303)
Summary
Vulnerability in Linux kernel (CVE-2025-71303). Risk of unauthorized operations or information disclosure.
Original description
The description as published by the source.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
accel/amdxdna: Fix race condition when checking rpm_on
When autosuspend is triggered, driver rpm_on flag is set to indicate that
a suspend/resume is already in progress. However, when a userspace
application submits a command during this narrow window,
amdxdna_pm_resume_get() may incorrectly skip the resume operation because
the rpm_on flag is still set. This results in commands being submitted
while the device has not actually resumed, causing unexpected behavior.
The set_dpm() is called by suspend/resume, it relied on rpm_on flag to
avoid calling into rpm suspend/resume recursivly. So to fix this, remove
the use of the rpm_on flag entirely. Instead, introduce aie2_pm_set_dpm()
which explicitly resumes the device before invoking set_dpm(). With this
change, set_dpm() is called directly inside the suspend or resume execution
path. Otherwise, aie2_pm_set_dpm() is called.
