Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usb: typec: ucsi: displayport: Fix deadlock This patch introduces the ucsi_con_mutex_lock / ucsi_con_mutex_unlock functions to the UCSI driver. ucsi_con_mutex_lock ensures the connector mutex is only locked if a connection is established and the partner pointer is valid. This resolves a deadlock scenario where ucsi_displayport_remove_partner holds con->mutex waiting for dp_altmode_work to complete while dp_altmode_work attempts to acquire it.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 5.2 < 5.15.184) • linux linux kernel (>= 5.16 < 6.1.140) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.2 < 6.6.92) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.12.30) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.13 < 6.14.7) • linux linux kernel 6.15 • debian debian linux 11.0
