"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nsched/fair: Clear rel_deadline when initializing forked entities\n\nA yield-triggered crash can happen when a newly forked sched_entity\nenters the fair class with se->rel_deadline unexpectedly set.\n\nThe failing sequence is:\n\n 1. A task is forked while se->rel_deadline is still set.\n 2. __sched_fork() initializes vruntime, vlag and other sched_entity\n state, but does not clear rel_deadline.\n 3. On the first enqueue, enqueue_entity() calls place_entity().\n 4. Because se->rel_deadline is set, place_entity() treats se->deadline\n as a relative deadline and converts it to an absolute deadline by\n adding the current vruntime.\n 5. However, the forked entity's deadline is not a valid inherited\n relative deadline for this new scheduling instance, so the conversion\n produces an abnormally large deadline.\n 6. If the task later calls sched_yield(), yield_task_fair() advances\n se->vruntime to se->deadline.\n 7. The inflated vruntime is then used by the following enqueue path,\n where the vruntime-derived key can overflow when multiplied by the\n entity weight.\n 8. This corrupts cfs_rq->sum_w_vruntime, breaks EEVDF eligibility\n calculation, and can eventually make all entities appear ineligible.\n pick_next_entity() may then return NULL unexpectedly, leading to a\n later NULL dereference.\n\nA captured trace shows the effect clearly. Before yield, the entity's\nvruntime was around:\n\n 9834017729983308\n\nAfter yield_task_fair() executed:\n\n se->vruntime = se->deadline\n\nthe vruntime jumped to:\n\n 19668035460670230\n\nand the deadline was later advanced further to:\n\n 19668035463470230\n\nThis shows that the deadline had already become abnormally large before\nyield_task_fair() copied it into vruntime.\n\nrel_deadline is only meaningful when se->deadline really carries a\nrelative deadline that still needs to be placed against vruntime. A\nfreshly forked sched_entity should not inherit or retain this state.\nClear se->rel_deadline in __sched_fork(), together with the other\nsched_entity runtime state, so that the first enqueue does not interpret\nthe new entity's deadline as a stale relative deadline."
