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: PM: runtime: Fix a race condition
related to device removal The following code in pm_runtime_work() may dereference the dev->parent pointer
after the parent device has been freed: /* Maybe the parent is now able to suspend. */ if (parent &&
!parent->power.ignore_children) { spin_unlock(&dev->power.lock); spin_lock(&parent->power.lock);
rpm_idle(parent, RPM_ASYNC); spin_unlock(&parent->power.lock); spin_lock(&dev->power.lock); } Fix this by
inserting a flush_work() call in pm_runtime_remove(). Without this patch blktest block/001 triggers the
following complaint sporadically: BUG: KASAN: slab-use-after-free in lock_acquire+0x70/0x160 Read of size
