CVE-2023-53207 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ublk: fail to recover device if queue setup is interrupted In ublk_ctrl_end_recovery(), if wait_for_completion_interruptible() is interrupted by signal, queues aren't setup successfully yet, so we have to fail UBLK_CMD_END_USER_RECOVERY, otherwise kernel oops can be triggered.
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's ublk driver has been addressed. The issue arose in the 'ublk_ctrl_end_recovery()' function, where the 'wait_for_completion_interruptible()' call could be interrupted by a signal before the queues were fully set up. This interruption could lead to an incomplete recovery process, causing a kernel oops error. The vulnerability has been fixed by ensuring that the recovery command is properly terminated if the completion wait is interrupted.
Users can upgrade to the latest version of the Linux kernel where this vulnerability has been fixed.
