      <title>CVE-2026-97603 — idpf: disable DIM work before freeing q_vectors</title>
      <link>https://cve.radiocsirt.org/vuln/cve-2026-97603</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;idpf: disable DIM work before freeing q_vectors&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;idpf never drains the Tx/Rx DIM works before freeing the memory they
live in.  tx_dim and rx_dim are embedded in struct idpf_q_vector, they
are queued from the NAPI poll via net_dim(), and idpf_vport_intr_rel()
ends with kfree(rsrc-&amp;gt;q_vectors).  Nothing in the driver cancels them.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;idpf_tx_dim_work() and idpf_rx_dim_work() then run on freed memory:
idpf_vport_intr_write_itr() writes the ITR register through
q_vector-&amp;gt;intr_reg.tx_itr / rx_itr, void __iomem pointers loaded out of
the freed q_vector.  No configuration is needed to get there --
IDPF_ITR_IS_DYNAMIC() is defined as (itr_mode) and idpf_vport_alloc()
initialises both modes to IDPF_ITR_DYNAMIC.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Draining after idpf_vport_intr_napi_dis_all() is not enough on its own.
idpf_net_dim() is called from inside the
&amp;#34;if (napi_complete_done(napi, work_done))&amp;#34; branch of the poll, and
napi_complete_done() has already cleared NAPIF_STATE_SCHED by then.
napi_disable_locked() waits only while (val &amp;amp; (NAPIF_STATE_SCHED |
NAPIF_STATE_NPSVC)), so napi_disable() can return while the poll tail is
still queueing the work, and a plain cancel_work_sync() would be
re-armed behind the drain.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Use disable_work_sync(): schedule_work() on a work with a non-zero
disable count is dropped by clear_pending_if_disabled() before
__queue_work() is reached.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Move idpf_init_dim() to idpf_vport_intr_alloc() so the works are
initialised on…&lt;/p&gt;</description>
