Description

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Au1000 Ethernet driver. This vulnerability allows a privileged local user to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) when disabling or closing the network interface. The issue occurs because the driver executes a sleepable interrupt cleanup routine while holding an atomic lock, which can trigger a kernel crash.
