"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nALSA: seq: close a re-opened queue timer in the destructor\n\nqueue_delete() closes the queue timer, then frees it. snd_seq_timer_close()\nclears q->timer->timeri. snd_use_lock_sync() then drains borrowers, and\nsnd_seq_timer_delete() frees q->timer.\n\nA borrower can re-open the timer inside that window. A SET_QUEUE_CLIENT\nthat took a queueptr() use_lock reference before the queue was unlinked\nruns snd_seq_timer_open() after the close. Open refuses re-open only while\ntimeri is set, and the close just cleared it, so it re-opens timeri.\n\nsnd_seq_timer_delete() does not close that instance. Its snd_seq_timer_stop()\nis a no-op, because running was cleared first. So it frees q->timer with the\ninstance still live. The queue is freed next.\n\nThe instance stays on the global timer with callback_data pointing at the\nfreed queue. A non-owner START on the unlocked queue arms it. The next tick\nderefs the freed queue in snd_seq_timer_interrupt().\n\nReachable by an unprivileged user with access to /dev/snd/seq. No CAP and\nno queue ownership required.\n\nClose any lingering instance in the destructor. There, ->timeri can no\nlonger change: the queue is unlinked and all use_lock borrowers have\ndrained, so no snd_seq_queue_use() can re-open it. Close it before clearing\nq->timer. snd_timer_close() waits for any in-flight snd_seq_timer_interrupt()\nto finish, and that callback still reads q->timer (via snd_seq_check_queue()),\nso q->timer must stay valid until it drains."
