{"id":"DEBIAN-CVE-2025-22053","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:  net: ibmveth: make veth_pool_store stop hanging  v2: - Created a single error handling unlock and exit in veth_pool_store - Greatly expanded commit message with previous explanatory-only text  Summary: Use rtnl_mutex to synchronize veth_pool_store with itself, ibmveth_close and ibmveth_open, preventing multiple calls in a row to napi_disable.  Background: Two (or more) threads could call veth_pool_store through writing to /sys/devices/vio/30000002/pool*/*. You can do this easily with a little shell script. This causes a hang.  I configured LOCKDEP, compiled ibmveth.c with DEBUG, and built a new kernel. I ran this test again and saw:      Setting pool0/active to 0     Setting pool1/active to 1     [   73.911067][ T4365] ibmveth 30000002 eth0: close starting     Setting pool1/active to 1     Setting pool1/active to 0     [   73.911367][ T4366] ibmveth 30000002 eth0: close starting     [   73.916056][ T4365] ibmveth 30000002 eth0: close complete     [   73.916064][ T4365] ibmveth 30000002 eth0: open starting     [  110.808564][  T712] systemd-journald[712]: Sent WATCHDOG=1 notification.
