Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description A deadlock issue existed within the soft reset sequence in the drm/imagination module of the Linux kernel. The soft reset sequence was executed from a threaded IRQ handler, which attempted to call disable irq(). This function internally waits for IRQ handlers, including itself, to complete, leading to a deadlock. The issue was resolved by using disable irq nosync() during the soft reset sequence.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
