"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nring-buffer: Use current_context for safe per-CPU buffer swap\n\nThe ring_buffer_swap_cpu() function currently checks the per-CPU\ncommitting counter to determine if a buffer is actively being written to\nbefore performing the swap. However, there exists a race window where\nthis check can be bypassed:\n\n ring_buffer_lock_reserve\n cpu_buffer = buffer->buffers[cpu]; // cpu_buffer_a\n rb_reserve_next_event\n rb_start_commit // inc committing\n if (unlikely(READ_ONCE(cpu_buffer->buffer) != buffer)) {...}\n __rb_reserve_next\n rb_move_tail\n rb_end_commit(cpu_buffer); // dec committing => 0\n /* interrupt hits here, successfully swaps! */\n local_inc(&cpu_buffer->committing);\n\n ring_buffer_unlock_commit\n cpu_buffer = buffer->buffers[cpu]; // cpu_buffer_b\n rb_commit\n rb_end_commit\n RB_WARN_ON(cpu_buffer, !local_read(&cpu_buffer->committing))\n // triggers warning\n\nThe committing counter can temporarily drop to 0 during a single write\noperation (within rb_move_tail), creating a window where swap can\nsucceed even though the write is still in progress. This leads to\ninconsistent buffer state and triggers the RB_WARN_ON in rb_commit().\n\nReplace the committing counter check with current_context checks, which\nare set at the entry of ring_buffer_lock_reserve() and remain valid\nthroughout the entire write operation, providing a reliable indicator of\nbuffer busy state during swap."
