In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: block: don't delete queue kobject before its children kobjects aren't supposed to be deleted before their child kobjects are deleted. Apparently this is usually benign; however, a WARN will be triggered if one of the child kobjects has a named attribute group: sysfs group 'modes' not found for kobject 'crypto' WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 1 at fs/sysfs/group.c:278 sysfs_remove_group+0x72/0x80 ... Call Trace: sysfs_remove_groups+0x29/0x40 fs/sysfs/group.c:312 __kobject_del+0x20/0x80 lib/kobject.c:611 kobject_cleanup+0xa4/0x140 lib/kobject.c:696 kobject_release lib/kobject.c:736 [inline] kref_put include/linux/kref.h:65 [inline] kobject_put+0x53/0x70 lib/kobject.c:753 blk_crypto_sysfs_unregister+0x10/0x20 block/blk-crypto-sysfs.c:159 blk_unregister_queue+0xb0/0x110 block/blk-sysfs.c:962 del_gendisk+0x117/0x250 block/genhd.c:610 Fix this by moving the kobject_del() and the corresponding kobject_uevent() to the correct place.
