Synopsis
The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.Description
The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: iommu/mediatek: Remove clk_disable in mtk_iommu_remove After the commit b34ea31fe013 (iommu/mediatek: Always enable the clk on resume), the iommu clock is controlled by the runtime callback. thus remove the clk control in the mtk_iommu_remove.
Otherwise, it will warning like: echo 14018000.iommu > /sys/bus/platform/drivers/mtk-iommu/unbind [ 51.413044] ------------[ cut here ]------------ [ 51.413648] vpp0_smi_iommu already disabled [ 51.414233] WARNING: CPU: 2 PID: 157 at */v5.15-rc1/kernel/mediatek/ drivers/clk/clk.c:952 clk_core_disable+0xb0/0xb8 [ 51.417174] Hardware name: MT8195V/C(ENG) (DT) [ 51.418635] pc : clk_core_disable+0xb0/0xb8 [ 51.419177] lr : clk_core_disable+0xb0/0xb8 ...
