| Name | CVE-2024-46788 |
| Description | In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
tracing/osnoise: Use a cpumask to know what threads are kthreads
The start_kthread() and stop_thread() code was not always called with the
interface_lock held. This means that the kthread variable could be
unexpectedly changed causing the kthread_stop() to be called on it when it
should not have been, leading to:
while true; do
rtla timerlat top -u -q & PID=$!;
sleep 5;
kill -INT $PID;
sleep 0.001;
kill -TERM $PID;
wait $PID;
done
Causing the following OOPS:
