      <title>CVE-2024-58078 — misc: misc_minor_alloc to use ida for all dynamic/misc dynamic minors</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2024-58078</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;misc: misc_minor_alloc to use ida for all dynamic/misc dynamic minors&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;misc_minor_alloc was allocating id using ida for minor only in case of
MISC_DYNAMIC_MINOR but misc_minor_free was always freeing ids
using ida_free causing a mismatch and following warn:
&amp;gt; &amp;gt; WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 159 at lib/idr.c:525 ida_free+0x3e0/0x41f
&amp;gt; &amp;gt; ida_free called for id=127 which is not allocated.
&amp;gt; &amp;gt; &amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;&amp;lt;
...

&amp;gt; &amp;gt; [&amp;lt;605acb82&amp;gt;] misc_deregister+0x171/0x1b3&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;misc_minor_alloc is changed to allocate id from ida for all minors
falling in the range of dynamic/ misc dynamic minors&lt;/p&gt;</description>
