      <title>CVE-2023-52813 — crypto: pcrypt - Fix hungtask for PADATA_RESET</title>
      <link>https://cve.radiocsirt.org/vuln/cve-2023-52813</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;crypto: pcrypt - Fix hungtask for PADATA_RESET&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We found a hungtask bug in test_aead_vec_cfg as follows:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;INFO: task cryptomgr_test:391009 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
&amp;#34;echo 0 &amp;gt; /proc/sys/kernel/hung_task_timeout_secs&amp;#34; disables this message.
Call trace:
 __switch_to+0x98/0xe0

 ret_from_fork+0x10/0x18
 Kernel panic - not syncing: hung_task: blocked tasks&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For padata_do_parallel, when the return err is 0 or -EBUSY, it will call
wait_for_completion(&amp;amp;wait-&amp;gt;completion) in test_aead_vec_cfg. In normal
case, aead_request_complete() will be called in pcrypt_aead_serial and the
return err is 0 for padata_do_parallel. But, when pinst-&amp;gt;flags is
PADATA_RESET, the return err is -EBUSY for padata_do_parallel, and it
won&amp;#39;t call aead_request_complete(). Therefore, test_aead_vec_cfg will
hung at wait_for_completion(&amp;amp;wait-&amp;gt;completion), which will cause
hungtask.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The problem comes as following:
(padata_do_parallel)                 |
    rcu_read_lock_bh();              |
    err = -EINVAL;                   |   (padata_replace)
                                     |     pinst-&amp;gt;flags |= PADATA_RESET;
    err =…&lt;/p&gt;</description>
