Description

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

 - In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: page_pool: avoid infinite loop to
 schedule delayed worker We noticed the kworker in page_pool_release_retry() was waken up repeatedly and
 infinitely in production because of the buggy driver causing the inflight less than 0 and warning us in
 page_pool_inflight()[1]. Since the inflight value goes negative, it means we should not expect the whole
 page_pool to get back to work normally. This patch mitigates the adverse effect by not rescheduling the
 kworker when detecting the inflight negative in page_pool_release_retry(). [1] [Mon Feb 10 20:36:11 2025]
