CVE-2026-23295 — Linux Linux Kernel security vulnerability

Medium CVSS 5.5

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: accel/amdxdna: Fix dead lock for suspend and resume When an application issues a query IOCTL while auto suspend is running, a deadlock can occur. The query path holds dev_lock and then calls pm_runtime_resume_and_get(), which waits for the ongoing suspend to complete. Meanwhile, the suspend callback attempts to acquire dev_lock and blocks, resulting in a deadlock. Fix this by releasing dev_lock before calling pm_runtime_resume_and_get() and reacquiring it after the call completes. Also acquire dev_lock in the resume callback to keep the locking consistent.

Matched remediation archetype

Race condition, TOCTOU, and lifecycle synchronization

This catalog composition supplies bounded fallback guidance. Explicitly reviewed curated workflows load with the complete record below.

Check exposure

  • Map concurrent actors, shared state, lock boundaries, signals, callbacks, retries, and check-then-use sequences in the affected path.
  • Determine whether untrusted users can influence timing, object names, filesystem state, or repeated state transitions.
  • Identify clustered and multi-process behavior that repository-local tests may not represent.

Remediate safely

  • Make the sensitive state transition atomic or protect it with a consistently ordered synchronization primitive.
  • Perform authorization and invariant checks on the same authoritative object and transaction used for the operation.
  • Use unique private resources, safe ownership transfer, and idempotent operations; add deterministic concurrency regression tests.
