CVE-2025-38305 [MEDIUM] CWE-833 kernel: Linux kernel (PTP): Denial of Service due to recursive locking in virtual clock handling
kernel: Linux kernel (PTP): Denial of Service due to recursive locking in virtual clock handling
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ptp: remove ptp->n_vclocks check logic in ptp_vclock_in_use()
There is no disagreement that we should check both ptp->is_virtual_clock
and ptp->n_vclocks to check if the ptp virtual clock is in use.
However, when we acquire ptp->n_vclocks_mux to read ptp->n_vclocks in
ptp_vclock_in_use(), we observe a recursive lock in the call trace
starting from n_vclocks_store().
WARNING: possible recursive locking detected
