CVE-2022-50103CVE-2022-50103
linux / linux_kernel
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched, cpuset: Fix dl_cpu_busy() panic due to empty cs->cpus_allowed
With cgroup v2, the cpuset's cpus_allowed mask can be empty indicating
that the cpuset will just use the effective CPUs of its parent. So
cpuset_can_attach() can call task_can_attach() with an empty mask.
This can lead to cpumask_any_and() returns nr_cpu_ids causing the call
to dl_bw_of() to crash due to percpu value access of an out of bound
CPU value. For example:
