Summary

In the Linux kernel, the debugobjects module has an issue on RT-enabled systems. The fill_pool() function calls rtlock_lock(), which asserts if current->pi_blocked_on is set, potentially causing a kernel panic.

Risk Assessment

On RT systems, a kernel panic due to assertion failure can destabilize real-time operation.

Recommendation

Apply the Linux kernel patch that extends the condition in fill_pool() to check current::pi_blocked_on, avoiding rtlock_lock() in inappropriate context.

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: debugobjects: Do not fill_pool() if pi_blocked_on On RT enabled kernels, fill_pool() ends up calling rtlock_lock(), which asserts if current::pi_blocked_on is set, because a task can obviously only block on one lock as otherwise the priority inheritenace chain gets corrupted. Prevent this by expanding the conditional to take current::pi_blocked_on into account.
