In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sched_ext: Fix stale direct dispatch state in ddsp_dsq_id @p->scx.ddsp_dsq_id can be left set (non-SCX_DSQ_INVALID) triggering a spurious warning in mark_direct_dispatch() when the next wakeup's ops.select_cpu() calls scx_bpf_dsq_insert(), such as: WARNING: kernel/sched/ext.c:1273 at scx_dsq_insert_commit+0xcd/0x140 The root cause is that ddsp_dsq_id was only cleared in dispatch_enqueue(), which is not reached in all paths that consume or cancel a direct dispatch verdict. Fix it by clearing it at the right places: - direct_dispatch(): cache the direct dispatch state in local variables and clear it before dispatch_enqueue() on the synchronous path. For the deferred path, the direct dispatch state must remain set until process_ddsp_deferred_locals() consumes them. - process_ddsp_deferred_locals(): cache the dispatch state in local variables and clear it before calling dispatch_to_local_dsq(), which may migrate the task to another rq. - do_enqueue_task(): clear the dispatch state on the enqueue path (local/global/bypass fallbacks), where the direct dispatch verdict is ignored. - dequeue_task_scx(): clear the dispatch state after dispatch_dequeue() to handle both the deferred dispatch cancellation and the holding_cpu race, covering all cases where a pending direct dispatch is cancelled. - scx_disable_task(): clear the direct dispatch state when transitioning a task out of the current scheduler. Waking tasks may have had the direct dispatch state set by the outgoing scheduler's ops.select_cpu() and then been queued on a wake_list via ttwu_queue_wakelist(), when SCX_OPS_ALLOW_QUEUED_WAKEUP is set. Such tasks are not on the runqueue and are not iterated by scx_bypass(), so their direct dispatch state won't be cleared. Without this clear, any subsequent SCX scheduler that tries to direct dispatch the task will trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE() in mark_direct_dispatch().

There are packages installed that are affected by a vulnerability referenced in the following CVE:

Tenable has extracted the preceding description block directly from the tested product security advisory.

Note that Nessus has not tested for these issues but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version number.

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

  - sched_ext: Fix stale direct dispatch state in ddsp_dsq_id @p->scx.ddsp_dsq_id can be left set (non-     SCX_DSQ_INVALID) triggering a spurious warning in mark_direct_dispatch() when the next wakeup's     ops.select_cpu() calls scx_bpf_dsq_insert(), such as: WARNING: kernel/sched/ext.c:1273 at     scx_dsq_insert_commit+0xcd/0x140 The root cause is that ddsp_dsq_id was only cleared in     dispatch_enqueue(), which is not reached in all paths that consume or cancel a direct dispatch verdict.
    Fix it by clearing it at the right places: - direct_dispatch(): cache the direct dispatch state in local     variables and clear it before dispatch_enqueue() on the synchronous path. For the deferred path, the     direct dispatch state must remain set until process_ddsp_deferred_locals() consumes them. -     process_ddsp_deferred_locals(): cache the dispatch state in local variables and clear it before calling     dispatch_to_local_dsq(), which may migrate the task to another rq. - do_enqueue_task(): clear the dispatch     state on the enqueue path (local/global/bypass fallbacks), where the direct dispatch verdict is ignored. -     dequeue_task_scx(): clear the dispatch state after dispatch_dequeue() to handle both the deferred dispatch     cancellation and the holding_cpu race, covering all cases where a pending direct dispatch is cancelled. -     scx_disable_task(): clear the direct dispatch state when transitioning a task out of the current     scheduler. Waking tasks may have had the direct dispatch state set by the outgoing scheduler's     ops.select_cpu() and then been queued on a wake_list via ttwu_queue_wakelist(), when     SCX_OPS_ALLOW_QUEUED_WAKEUP is set. Such tasks are not on the runqueue and are not iterated by     scx_bypass(), so their direct dispatch state won't be cleared. Without this clear, any subsequent SCX     scheduler that tries to direct dispatch the task will trigger the WARN_ON_ONCE() in     mark_direct_dispatch(). (CVE-2026-31733)

Note that Nessus relies on the presence of the package as reported by the vendor.
