Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-02-26 03:08:47 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: annotate races around sk->sk_bound_dev_if

UDP sendmsg() is lockless, and reads sk->sk_bound_dev_if while
this field can be changed by another thread.

Adds minimal annotations to avoid KCSAN splats for UDP.
Following patches will add more annotations to potential lockless readers.

I chose to not add Fixes: tag because race has minor consequences
and stable teams busy enough.
