CVE-2025-22014 — soc: qcom: pdr: Fix the potential deadlock

Affected: Linux

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

soc: qcom: pdr: Fix the potential deadlock

When some client process A call pdr_add_lookup() to add the look up for the service and does schedule locator work, later a process B got a new server packet indicating locator is up and call pdr_locator_new_server() which eventually sets pdr->locator_init_complete to true which process A sees and takes list lock and queries domain list but it will timeout due to deadlock as the response will queued to the same qmi->wq and it is ordered workqueue and process B is not able to complete new server request work due to deadlock on list lock.

Fix it by removing the unnecessary list iteration as the list iteration is already being done inside locator work, so avoid it here and just call schedule_work() here.

Process A Process B

process_scheduled_works() pdr_add_lookup() qmi_data_ready_work() process_scheduled_works() pdr_locator_new_server() pdr->locator_init_complete=true; pdr_locator_work() mutex_lock(&pdr->list_lock);

pdr_locate_service() mutex_lock(&pdr->list_lock);

pdr_get_domain_list() pr_err("PDR: %s get domain list txn wait failed: %d\n", req->service_name, ret);

Michael Randrianantenaina discovered that the Bluetooth driver in the Linux Kernel contained an improper access control vulnerability. A nearby attacker could use this to connect a rougue device and possibly execute arbitrary code. (CVE-2024-8805)

It was discovered that the CIFS network file system implementation in the Linux kernel did not properly verify the target namespace when handling upcalls. An attacker could use this to expose sensitive information. (CVE-2025-2312)

Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel. An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system. This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems: - PowerPC architecture; - x86 architecture; - ACPI drivers; - Clock framework and drivers; - GPU drivers; - HID subsystem; - InfiniBand drivers; - Media drivers; - MemoryStick subsystem; - Network drivers; - Mellanox network drivers; - NTB driver; - PCI subsystem; - Voltage and Current Regulator drivers; - Remote Processor subsystem; - SCSI subsystem; - QCOM SoC drivers; - Thermal drivers; - BTRFS file system; - Ext4 file system; - JFS file system; - Network file system (NFS) server daemon; - NTFS3 file system; - File systems infrastructure; - Proc file system; - SMB network file system; - IPv6 networking; - RDMA verbs API; - SoC audio core drivers; - Tracing infrastructure; - Watch queue notification mechanism; - 802.1Q VLAN protocol; - Asynchronous Transfer Mo…
