Description OSIDB Bzimport 2026-08-15 06:21:00 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

gpio: mt7621: avoid corruption of shared interrupt trigger state

The bank-shared fields like 'rising' and 'falling' are modified using
non-atomic read-modify-write operations. Since every gpio chip instance
represents an entire bank of 32 pins, if 'mediatek_gpio_irq_type()' is
called concurrently for different IRQs on the same bank a possible overwrite
of each other's configuration is possible. Thus, protect this state with
'gpio_generic_lock_irqsave' lock in the same way it is handled in irp_chip
'mediatek_gpio_irq_mask()' and 'mediatek_gpio_irq_unmask()' callbacks.
