FKIE_CVE-2021-47327

Vulnerability from fkie_nvd - Published: 2024-05-21 15:15 - Updated: 2026-06-17 04:17
Severity
7.1 (High) - CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:N/A:H
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/arm-smmu: Fix arm_smmu_device refcount leak when arm_smmu_rpm_get fails arm_smmu_rpm_get() invokes pm_runtime_get_sync(), which increases the refcount of the "smmu" even though the return value is less than 0. The reference counting issue happens in some error handling paths of arm_smmu_rpm_get() in its caller functions. When arm_smmu_rpm_get() fails, the caller functions forget to decrease the refcount of "smmu" increased by arm_smmu_rpm_get(), causing a refcount leak. Fix this issue by calling pm_runtime_resume_and_get() instead of pm_runtime_get_sync() in arm_smmu_rpm_get(), which can keep the refcount balanced in case of failure.

El problema del conteo de referencias ocurre en algunas rutas de manejo de errores de arm_smmu_rpm_get() en sus funciones de llamada. Cuando arm_smmu_rpm_get() falla, las funciones de la persona que llama se olvidan de disminuir el recuento de \"smmu\" aumentado en arm_smmu_rpm_get(), lo que provoca una fuga de recuento. Solucione este problema llamando a pm_runtime_resume_and_get() en lugar de pm_runtime_get_sync() en arm_smmu_rpm_get(), lo que puede mantener el recuento equilibrado en caso de fallo."
