CVE-2022-49175 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: PM: core: keep irq flags in device_pm_check_callbacks() The function device_pm_check_callbacks() can be called under the spin lock (in the reported case it happens from genpd_add_device() -> dev_pm_domain_set(), when the genpd uses spinlocks rather than mutexes. However this function uncoditionally uses spin_lock_irq() / spin_unlock_irq(), thus not preserving the CPU flags. Use the irqsave/irqrestore instead.

A vulnerability exists in the Linux kernel's power management subsystem, specifically within the device_pm_check_callbacks() function. This issue arises because the function can be called while holding a spinlock, which leads to an improper handling of interrupt flags. The function uses spin_lock_irq() and spin_unlock_irq(), without preserving the CPU's interrupt state, creating a potential for interrupt handling errors. The vulnerability was identified in version 5.17.0-rc6.
