      <title>CVE-2024-50155 — netdevsim: use cond_resched() in nsim_dev_trap_report_work()</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2024-50155</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;netdevsim: use cond_resched() in nsim_dev_trap_report_work()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am still seeing many syzbot reports hinting that syzbot
might fool nsim_dev_trap_report_work() with hundreds of ports [1]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Lets use cond_resched(), and system_unbound_wq
instead of implicit system_wq.&lt;/p&gt;
