      <title>CVE-2024-56592 — bpf: Call free_htab_elem() after htab_unlock_bucket()</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2024-56592</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;bpf: Call free_htab_elem() after htab_unlock_bucket()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For htab of maps, when the map is removed from the htab, it may hold the
last reference of the map. bpf_map_fd_put_ptr() will invoke
bpf_map_free_id() to free the id of the removed map element. However,
bpf_map_fd_put_ptr() is invoked while holding a bucket lock
(raw_spin_lock_t), and bpf_map_free_id() attempts to acquire map_idr_lock
(spinlock_t), triggering the following lockdep warning:&lt;/p&gt;
