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

ring-buffer: Hold cpu_buffer::lock when resizing a subbuf

Because, ring_buffer_subbuf_order_set() can clear cpu_buffer->free_page,
hold cpu_buffer->lock to prevent races with
ring_buffer_alloc_read_page() and ring_buffer_free_read_page().

No CVSS v4.0

Attack Vector Local

Attack Complexity High

Privileges Required Low

Scope Unchanged
