| Subject: CVE-2024-27067: xen/evtchn: avoid WARN() when unbinding an event channel |
| |
| Description |
| =========== |
| |
| In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: |
| |
| xen/evtchn: avoid WARN() when unbinding an event channel |
| |
| When unbinding a user event channel, the related handler might be |
| called a last time in case the kernel was built with |
| CONFIG_DEBUG_SHIRQ. This might cause a WARN() in the handler. |
| |
| Avoid that by adding an "unbinding" flag to struct user_event which |
| will short circuit the handler. |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team has assigned CVE-2024-27067 to this issue. |

| Mitigation |
| ========== |
| |
| The Linux kernel CVE team recommends that you update to the latest |
| stable kernel version for this, and many other bugfixes. Individual |
| changes are never tested alone, but rather are part of a larger kernel |
| release. Cherry-picking individual commits is not recommended or |
| supported by the Linux kernel community at all. If however, updating to |
| the latest release is impossible, the individual changes to resolve this |
| issue can be found at these commits: |
