CVE-2025-39782

*** Pendiente de traducción *** In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br /> <br /> jbd2: prevent softlockup in jbd2_log_do_checkpoint()<br /> <br /> Both jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() and jbd2_journal_shrink_checkpoint_list()<br /> periodically release j_list_lock after processing a batch of buffers to<br /> avoid long hold times on the j_list_lock. However, since both functions<br /> contend for j_list_lock, the combined time spent waiting and processing<br /> can be significant.<br /> <br /> jbd2_journal_shrink_checkpoint_list() explicitly calls cond_resched() when<br /> need_resched() is true to avoid softlockups during prolonged operations.<br /> But jbd2_log_do_checkpoint() only exits its loop when need_resched() is<br /> true, relying on potentially sleeping functions like __flush_batch() or<br /> wait_on_buffer() to trigger rescheduling. If those functions do not sleep,<br /> the kernel may hit a softlockup.<br /> <br /> watchdog: BUG: soft lockup - CPU#3 stuck for 156s!
