Siemens SCALANCE and RUGGEDCOM Devices Improper Input Validation (CVE-2024-40976)

medium Tenable OT Security Plugin ID 504455

Synopsis

The remote OT asset is affected by a vulnerability.

Description

drm/lima: There is a race condition in which a rendering job might take just long enough to trigger the drm sched job timeout handler but also still complete before the hard reset is done by the timeout handler. This runs into race conditions not expected by the timeout handler. In some very specific cases it currently may result in a refcount imbalance on lima_pm_idle, with a stack dump.

This plugin only works with Tenable.ot.
