"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\ndrop_monitor: use timer_shutdown_sync() to prevent timer rearming during teardown\n\nIn drop_monitor teardown paths (net_dm_trace_off_set(),\nnet_dm_hw_monitor_stop(), and error unwind paths in net_dm_trace_on_set()\nand net_dm_hw_monitor_start()), per-CPU timers are stopped using\ntimer_delete_sync() followed by cancel_work_sync().\n\nHowever, there is a circular dependency between send_timer and\ndm_alert_work:\n1) sched_send_work() (timer callback) schedules dm_alert_work.\n2) send_dm_alert() / net_dm_hw_summary_work() calls reset_per_cpu_data()\n or net_dm_hw_reset_per_cpu_data().\n3) If memory allocation fails under memory pressure in the reset\n function, it re-arms the timer via mod_timer(&data->send_timer, ...).\n\nIf dm_alert_work is running concurrently while timer_delete_sync()\nexecutes on another CPU, an allocation failure in the worker will\nre-arm the timer after timer_delete_sync() has already returned.\nOnce cancel_work_sync() completes and module_put() is called, the timer\nremains active in the timer wheel. If the module is then unloaded, the\ntimer will fire and execute sched_send_work() in freed memory,\ntriggering a kernel panic / use-after-free.\n\nSwitch from timer_delete_sync() to timer_shutdown_sync(). This guarantees\nthat any in-flight timer handler has finished and prevents subsequent\nre-arming attempts from running workers from succeeding. When monitoring\nis restarted later, timer_setup() is invoked, which cleanly\nre-initializes the timer."
