"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndrivers: staging: rtl8723bs: Fix locking in _rtw_join_timeout_handler()\n\nCommit 041879b12ddb (\"drivers: staging: rtl8192bs: Fix deadlock in\nrtw_joinbss_event_prehandle()\") besides fixing the deadlock also\nmodified _rtw_join_timeout_handler() to use spin_[un]lock_irq()\ninstead of spin_[un]lock_bh().\n\n_rtw_join_timeout_handler() calls rtw_do_join() which takes\npmlmepriv->scanned_queue.lock using spin_[un]lock_bh(). This\nspin_unlock_bh() call re-enables softirqs which triggers an oops in\nkernel/softirq.c: __local_bh_enable_ip() when it calls\nlockdep_assert_irqs_enabled():\n\n[ 244.506087] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 0 at kernel/softirq.c:376 __local_bh_enable_ip+0xa6/0x100\n...\n[ 244.509022] Call Trace:\n[ 244.509048] <IRQ>\n[ 244.509100] _rtw_join_timeout_handler+0x134/0x170 [r8723bs]\n[ 244.509468] ? __pfx__rtw_join_timeout_handler+0x10/0x10 [r8723bs]\n[ 244.509772] ? __pfx__rtw_join_timeout_handler+0x10/0x10 [r8723bs]\n[ 244.510076] call_timer_fn+0x95/0x2a0\n[ 244.510200] __run_timers.part.0+0x1da/0x2d0\n\nThis oops is causd by the switch to spin_[un]lock_irq() which disables\nthe IRQs for the entire duration of _rtw_join_timeout_handler().\n\nDisabling the IRQs is not necessary since all code taking this lock\nruns from either user contexts or from softirqs, switch back to\nspin_[un]lock_bh() to fix this."
