Input: ims-pcu - fix race condition in reset_device sysfs callback

Type: advisorySources: OSV

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: Input: ims-pcu - fix race condition in reset_device sysfs callback The ims_pcu_reset_device() sysfs callback calls ims_pcu_execute_command() without acquiring pcu->cmd_mutex. This can lead to data races and corruption of the shared command buffer if triggered concurrently with other commands. Acquire pcu->cmd_mutex before calling ims_pcu_execute_command().
