Description
A flaw was found in the drm/vc4 component of the Linux kernel. A logic error in the BO cache timer shutdown process allows the timer to be rearmed even after it has been destroyed. This can lead to work being queued again after teardown, potentially causing system instability or a denial of service (DoS) due to improper resource management.
Statement
This issue affects Raspberry Pi vc4 DRM. BO cache timer can rearm after delete during teardown, causing use-after-work. Systems without vc4 are not affected.
