This may cause a\nsituation where, after a wake-up, the bit-clearing operation hasn't been\ndetected yet, leading to an indefinite wait. The triggering process is as\nfollows:\n\n  [cookie1]                [cookie2]                  [volume_work]\nfscache_perform_lookup\n  fscache_create_volume\n                        fscache_perform_lookup\n                          fscache_create_volume\n\t\t\t                        fscache_create_volume_work\n                                                  cachefiles_acquire_volume\n                                                  clear_and_wake_up_bit\n    test_and_set_bit\n                            test_and_set_bit\n                              goto maybe_wait\n      goto no_wait\n\nIn the above process, cookie1 and cookie2 has the same volume. When cookie1\nenters the -no_wait- process, it will clear the bit and wake up the waiting\nprocess. If a barrier is missing, it may cause cookie2 to remain in the\n-wait- process indefinitely.\n\nIn commit 3288666c7256 (\"fscache: Use clear_and_wake_up_bit() in\nfscache_create_volume_work()\"), barriers were added to similar operations\nin fscache_create_volume_work(), but fscache_create_volume() was missed.\n\nBy combining the clear and wake operations into clear_and_wake_up_bit() to\nfix this issue."}],"affected":[{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"unaffected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["fs/netfs/fscache_volume.c"],"versions":[{"version":"bfa22da3ed652aa15acd4246fa13a0de6dbe4a59","lessThan":"ddab02607eed9e415dc62fde421d4329e5345315","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"bfa22da3ed652aa15acd4246fa13a0de6dbe4a59","lessThan":"539fabba965e119b98066fc6ba5257b5eaf4eda2","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"bfa22da3ed652aa15acd4246fa13a0de6dbe4a59","lessThan":"8beb682cc9a0798a280bbb95e3e41617237090b2","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"bfa22da3ed652aa15acd4246fa13a0de6dbe4a59","lessThan":"8cc1df3113cb71a0df2c46dd5b102c9e11c8a8c6","status":"affected","versionType":"git"},{"version":"bfa22da3ed652aa15acd4246fa13a0de6dbe4a59","lessThan":"22f9400a6f3560629478e0a64247b8fcc811a24d","status":"affected","versionType":"git"}]},{"product":"Linux","vendor":"Linux","defaultStatus":"affected","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","programFiles":["fs/netfs/fscache_volume.c"],"versions":[{"version":"5.17","status":"affected"},{"version":"0","lessThan":"5.17","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.1.120","lessThanOrEqual":"6.1.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.6.64","lessThanOrEqual":"6.6.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.11.11","lessThanOrEqual":"6.11.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.12.2","lessThanOrEqual":"6.12.*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"semver"},{"version":"6.13","lessThanOrEqual":"*","status":"unaffected","versionType":"original_commit_for_fix"}]}],"cpeApplicability":[{"nodes":[{"operator":"OR","negate":false,"cpeMatch":[{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.17","versionEndExcluding":"6.1.120"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.17","versionEndExcluding":"6.6.64"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.17","versionEndExcluding":"6.11.11"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.17","versionEndExcluding":"6.12.2"},{"vulnerable":true,"criteria":"cpe:2.3:o:linux:linux_kernel:*:*:*:*:*:*:*:*","versionStartIncluding":"5.17","versionEndExcluding":"6.13"}]}]}],"references":[{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ddab02607eed9e415dc62fde421d4329e5345315"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/539fabba965e119b98066fc6ba5257b5eaf4eda2"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8beb682cc9a0798a280bbb95e3e41617237090b2"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8cc1df3113cb71a0df2c46dd5b102c9e11c8a8c6"},{"url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/22f9400a6f3560629478e0a64247b8fcc811a24d"}],"title":"netfs/fscache: Add a memory barrier for FSCACHE_VOLUME_CREATING","x_generator":{"engine":"bippy-1.2.0"}},"adp":[{"metrics":[{"cvssV3_1":{"scope":"UNCHANGED","version":"3.1","baseScore":5.5,"attackVector":"LOCAL","baseSeverity":"MEDIUM","vectorString":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","integrityImpact":"NONE","userInteraction":"NONE","attackComplexity":"LOW","availabilityImpact":"HIGH","privilegesRequired":"LOW","confidentialityImpact":"NONE"}},{"other":{"type":"ssvc","content":{"id":"CVE-2024-56755","role":"CISA Coordinator","options":[{"Exploitation":"none"},{"Automatable":"no"},{"Technical Impact":"partial"}],"version":"2.0.3","timestamp":"2025-10-01T19:57:15.044178Z"}}}],"problemTypes":[{"descriptions":[{"lang":"en","type":"CWE","cweId":"CWE-401","description":"CWE-401 Missing Release of Memory after Effective Lifetime"}]}],"title":"CISA ADP Vulnrichment","providerMetadata":{"orgId":"134c704f-9b21-4f2e-91b3-4a467353bcc0","shortName":"CISA-ADP","dateUpdated":"2025-10-01T20:07:02.722Z"}},{"title":"CVE Program Container","references":[{"url":"https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2025/03/msg00001.html"}],"providerMetadata":{"orgId":"af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108","shortName":"CVE","dateUpdated":"2025-11-03T20:53:47.041Z"}}]}}
