TITLE

Linux  of  Linux Kernel  Vulnerability in using free memory in

DESCRIPTION

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: hrtimers: Handle CPU state correctly on hotplug Consider a scenario where a CPU transitions from CPUHP_ONLINE to halfway through a CPU hotunplug down to CPUHP_HRTIMERS_PREPARE, and then back to CPUHP_ONLINE: Since hrtimers_prepare_cpu() does not run, cpu_base.hres_active remains set to 1 throughout. However, during a CPU unplug operation, the tick and the clockevents are shut down at CPUHP_AP_TICK_DYING. On return to the online state, for instance CFS incorrectly assumes that the hrtick is already active, and the chance of the clockevent device to transition to oneshot mode is also lost forever for the CPU, unless it goes back to a lower state than CPUHP_HRTIMERS_PREPARE once. This round-trip reveals another issue; cpu_base.online is not set to 1 after the transition, which appears as a WARN_ON_ONCE in enqueue_hrtimer(). Aside of that, the bulk of the per CPU state is not reset either, which means there are dangling pointers in the worst case. Address this by adding a corresponding startup() callback, which resets the stale per CPU state and sets the online flag. [ tglx: Make the new callback unconditionally available, remove the online modification in the prepare() callback and clear the remaining state in the starting callback instead of the prepare callback ]. Linux of Linux Kernel Exists in a vulnerability related to the use of freed memory.Information is obtained, information is tampered with, and service operation is interrupted. (DoS) It may be in a state. The RUGGEDCOM RST2428P is a Layer 2 Ethernet switch based on SINEC OS with up to 28 non-blocking interfaces. SCALANCE X switches are used to connect industrial components such as programmable logic controllers (PLCs) and human-machine interfaces (HMIs). Multiple vulnerabilities exist in third-party components prior to SIEMENS SINEC OS V3.2. These vulnerabilities could be exploited to corrupt values, leading to undefined behavior or security issues
