CVE-2026-68152
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
amt: fix use-after-free in AMT delayed works
When an AMT device is removed, pending delayed works can still access
the freed amt_dev structure, which may result in kernel crashes or
memory corruption.
amt_dev_stop() cancels req_wq and discovery_wq with
cancel_delayed_work_sync(), but these works can be scheduled again
from event_wq after the cancellation. This allows delayed works to
access the freed amt_dev structure after the netdev has been released.
The following is a simple race scenario:
CPU0 CPU1
amt_dev_stop()
cancel_delayed_work_sync()
amt_event_work()
mod_delayed_work(req_wq)
free netdev
req_wq accesses freed amt_dev
Use disable_delayed_work_sync() in amt_dev_stop() to prevent req_wq and
discovery_wq from being queued again and wait for running work items
to complete.
The delayed works are disabled after initialization in
amt_newlink() and enabled only when the device is successfully opened.
This keeps the delayed work lifecycle synchronized with the lifetime
of the AMT device.
