CVE-2026-98347 : Chi tiết

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: IB/IPoIB: Avoid restoring OPER_UP after multicast flush ipoib_ib_dev_flush_light() temporarily clears IPOIB_FLAG_OPER_UP to prevent multicast joins while ipoib_mcast_dev_flush() is running, and restores the flag afterwards if it was previously set. This restore races with ipoib_ib_dev_down(). If the interface is brought down while the flush is in progress, ipoib_ib_dev_down() clears IPOIB_FLAG_OPER_UP, but the flush path may set it again after the device has already gone down. Since commit 894021a75291 ("IB/ipoib: Make the carrier_on_task race aware"), ipoib_mcast_carrier_on_task() relies on IPOIB_FLAG_OPER_UP being cleared to terminate its rtnl_trylock() retry loop. If the flag is left set after shutdown, the workqueue retries forever, causing teardown to deadlock when ipoib_ndo_uninit() waits in destroy_workqueue() while holding RTNL. Instead of overloading IPOIB_FLAG_OPER_UP to block multicast joins during a light flush, introduce a dedicated IPOIB_FLAG_MCAST_FLUSH flag. Use it together with IPOIB_FLAG_OPER_UP to determine whether multicast joins are allowed, avoiding the race with device shutdown.
