Type: advisorySources: OSVAdvisory ID: DEBIAN-CVE-2021-47512

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: fq_pie: prevent dismantle issue For some reason, fq_pie_destroy() did not copy working code from pie_destroy() and other qdiscs, thus causing elusive bug. Before calling del_timer_sync(&q->adapt_timer), we need to ensure timer will not rearm itself. rcu: INFO: rcu_preempt self-detected stall on CPU rcu: 0-....: (4416 ticks this GP) idle=60d/1/0x4000000000000000 softirq=10433/10434 fqs=2579 (t=10501 jiffies g=13085 q=3989) NMI backtrace for cpu 0 CPU: 0 PID: 13 Comm: ksoftirqd/0 Not tainted 5.16.0-rc4-syzkaller #0 Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 01/01/2011 Call Trace: __dump_stack lib/dump_stack.c:88 [inline] dump_stack_lvl+0xcd/0x134 lib/dump_stack.c:106 nmi_cpu_backtrace.cold+0x47/0x144 lib/nmi_backtrace.c:111 nmi_trigger_cpumask_backtrace+0x1b3/0x230 lib/nmi_backtrace.c:62 trigger_single_cpu_backtrace include/linux/nmi.h:164 [inline] rcu_dump_cpu_stacks+0x25e/0x3f0 kernel/rcu/tree_stall.h:343 print_cpu_stall kernel/rcu/tree_stall.h:627 [inline] check_cpu_stall kernel/rcu/tree_stall.h:711 [inline] rcu_pending kernel/rcu/tree.c:3878 [inline] rcu_sched_clock_irq.cold+0x9d/0x746 kernel/rcu/tree.c:2597 update_process_times+0x16d/0x200 kernel/time/timer.c:1785 tick_sched_handle+0x9b/0x180 kernel/time/tick-sched.c:226 tick_sched_timer+0x1b0/0x2d0 kernel/time/tick-sched.c:1428 __run_hrtimer kernel/time/hrtimer.c:1685 [inline] __hrtimer_run_queues+0x1c0/0xe50
