      <title>CVE-2022-49313 — drivers: usb: host: Fix deadlock in oxu_bus_suspend()</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2022-49313</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;drivers: usb: host: Fix deadlock in oxu_bus_suspend()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There is a deadlock in oxu_bus_suspend(), which is shown below:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(Thread 1)              |      (Thread 2)
                           | timer_action()
oxu_bus_suspend()          |  mod_timer()
 spin_lock_irq() //(1)     |  (wait a time)
 ...                       | oxu_watchdog()
 del_timer_sync()          |  spin_lock_irq() //(2)
 (wait timer to stop)      |  ...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We hold oxu-&amp;gt;lock in position (1) of thread 1, and use
del_timer_sync() to wait timer to stop, but timer handler
also need oxu-&amp;gt;lock in position (2) of thread 2. As a result,
oxu_bus_suspend() will block forever.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This patch extracts del_timer_sync() from the protection of
spin_lock_irq(), which could let timer handler to obtain
the needed lock.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
