Title
media: dvb-core: fix wrong reinitialization of ringbuffer on reopen
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: media: dvb-core: fix wrong reinitialization of ringbuffer on reopen dvb_dvr_open() calls dvb_ringbuffer_init() when a new reader opens the DVR device. dvb_ringbuffer_init() calls init_waitqueue_head(), which reinitializes the waitqueue list head to empty. Since dmxdev->dvr_buffer.queue is a shared waitqueue (all opens of the same DVR device share it), this orphans any existing waitqueue entries from io_uring poll or epoll, leaving them with stale prev/next pointers while the list head is reset to {self, self}. The waitqueue and spinlock in dvr_buffer are already properly initialized once in dvb_dmxdev_init(). The open path only needs to reset the buffer data pointer, size, and read/write positions. Replace the dvb_ringbuffer_init() call in dvb_dvr_open() with direct assignment of data/size and a call to dvb_ringbuffer_reset(), which properly resets pread, pwrite, and error with correct memory ordering without touching the waitqueue or spinlock.

There is no crossing of security boundaries like VM escape or IOMMU bypass.\nC:H - The waitqueue list corruption creates orphaned entries with stale pointers, which is a use-after-free primitive. UAF gives the attacker control over freed memory contents, enabling arbitrary kernel memory reads.\nI:H - The list corruption from the orphaned waitqueue entries provides write primitives through stale prev/next pointer manipulation. This is a classic kernel list corruption that can be leveraged for arbitrary write and code execution via heap spraying.\nA:H - The stale list pointers will cause a kernel crash/oops when the orphaned wait_queue_entry is removed, as it dereferences corrupted prev/next pointers.
