In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
io_uring/io-wq: Use set_bit() and test_bit() at worker->flags
Utilize set_bit() and test_bit() on worker->flags within io_uring/io-wq
to address potential data races.
The structure io_worker->flags may be accessed through various data
paths, leading to concurrency issues. When KCSAN is enabled, it reveals
data races occurring in io_worker_handle_work and
io_wq_activate_free_worker functions.
BUG: KCSAN: data-race in io_worker_handle_work / io_wq_activate_free_worker
write to 0xffff8885c4246404 of 4 bytes by task 49071 on cpu 28:

Line numbers against commit 18daea77cca6 ("Merge tag 'for-linus' of
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/virt/kvm/kvm").
These races involve writes and reads to the same memory location by
different tasks running on different CPUs. To mitigate this, refactor
the code to use atomic operations such as set_bit(), test_bit(), and
clear_bit() instead of basic "and" and "or" operations. This ensures
thread-safe manipulation of worker flags.
Also, move `create_index` to avoid holes in the structure.

CVE-2024-32936 [MEDIUM] Linux kernel vulnerabilities
Title: Linux kernel vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.
Chenyuan Yang discovered that the CEC driver driver in the Linux kernel
contained a use-after-free vulnerability. A local attacker could use this
to cause a denial of service (system crash) or possibly execute arbitrary
code. (CVE-2024-23848)
It was discovered that the JFS file system contained an out-of-bounds read
vulnerability when printing xattr debug information. A local attacker could
use this to cause a denial of service (system crash). (CVE-2024-40902)
Several security issues were discovered in the Linux kernel.
An attacker could possibly use these to compromise the system.
This update corrects flaws in the following subsystems:
- ARM64 architecture;
- MIPS architecture;

FAQ: Is Azure Linux the only Microsoft product that includes this open-source library and is therefore potentially affected by this vulnerability?
One of the main benefits to our customers who choose to use the Azure Linux distro is the commitment to keep it up to date with the most recent and most secure versions of the open source libraries with which the distro is composed. Microsoft is committed to transparency in this work which is why we began publishing CSAF/VEX in October 2025. See this blog post for more information. If impact to additional products is identified, we will update the CVE to reflect this.
