DEBIAN-CVE-2026-43061
No affected components available
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: serial: 8250: Fix TX deadlock when using DMA dmaengine_terminate_async does not guarantee that the __dma_tx_complete callback will run. The callback is currently the only place where dma->tx_running gets cleared. If the transaction is canceled and the callback never runs, then dma->tx_running will never get cleared and we will never schedule new TX DMA transactions again. This change makes it so we clear dma->tx_running after we terminate the DMA transaction. This is "safe" because serial8250_tx_dma_flush is holding the UART port lock. The first thing the callback does is also grab the UART port lock, so access to dma->tx_running is serialized.
The vulnerability requires local access to the device to be exploited. It is easy for an attacker to exploit this vulnerability. An attacker needs basic access or low-level privileges. No user interaction is needed for the attacker to exploit this vulnerability. The impact is confined to the system where the vulnerability exists. There is a high impact on the availability of the system.
Exploitation attempts have been detected. Elevated vigilance and prompt remediation are advised.
Probability that this vulnerability will be exploited in the wild within the next 30 days.
