Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-03-06 16:02:09 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

team: prevent adding a device which is already a team device lower

Prevent adding a device which is already a team device lower,
e.g. adding veth0 if vlan1 was already added and veth0 is a lower of
vlan1.

This is not useful in practice and can lead to recursive locking:

$ ip link add veth0 type veth peer name veth1
$ ip link set veth0 up
$ ip link set veth1 up
$ ip link add link veth0 name veth0.1 type vlan protocol 802.1Q id 1
$ ip link add team0 type team
$ ip link set veth0.1 down
$ ip link set veth0.1 master team0
team0: Port device veth0.1 added
$ ip link set veth0 down
$ ip link set veth0 master team0

============================================
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
6.13.0-rc2-virtme-00441-ga14a429069bb #46 Not tainted
--------------------------------------------
ip/7684 is trying to acquire lock:
ffff888016848e00 (team->team_lock_key){+.+.}-{4:4}, at: team_device_event (drivers/net/team/team_core.c:2928 drivers/net/team/team_core.c:2951 drivers/net/team/team_core.c:2973)

but task is already holding lock:

other info that might help us debug this:
Possible unsafe locking scenario:

CPU0
----
lock(team->team_lock_key);
lock(team->team_lock_key);

*** DEADLOCK ***

May be due to missing lock nesting notation

2 locks held by ip/7684:
