CVE-2026-43446 — Linux Linux Kernel security vulnerability

Medium CVSS 5.5

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: accel/amdxdna: Fix runtime suspend deadlock when there is pending job The runtime suspend callback drains the running job workqueue before suspending the device. If a job is still executing and calls pm_runtime_resume_and_get(), it can deadlock with the runtime suspend path. Fix this by moving pm_runtime_resume_and_get() from the job execution routine to the job submission routine, ensuring the device is resumed before the job is queued and avoiding the deadlock during runtime suspend.

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.
