Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: um: time-travel: fix time corruption In 'basic' time-travel mode (without =inf-cpu or =ext), we still get timer interrupts. These can happen at arbitrary points in time, i.e. while in timer_read(), which pushes time forward just a little bit. Then, if we happen to get the interrupt after calculating the new time to push to, but before actually finishing that, the interrupt will set the time to a value that's incompatible with the forward, and we'll crash because time goes backwards when we do the forwarding. Fix this by reading the time_travel_time, calculating the adjustment, and doing the adjustment all with interrupts disabled.

Esto puede suceder en momentos arbitrarios en el tiempo, es decir, mientras est\u00e1 en timer_read(), lo que adelanta un poco el tiempo. Luego, si recibimos la interrupci\u00f3n despu\u00e9s de calcular el nuevo tiempo al que enviar, pero antes de finalizarlo, la interrupci\u00f3n establecer\u00e1 el tiempo en un valor que es incompatible con el avance, y fallaremos porque el tiempo retrocede cuando hacer el reenv\u00edo.
