Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.
在 Linux 内核中，已修复以下漏洞： sched_ext：确保 kick_sync 在其所属运行队列（rq）对应的 CPU 上等待 假设其运行在 rq 所属的 CPU 上（该假设源自 尾部执行的环境）：它所比较的快照数据 reside（驻留）在该 CPU 的 percpu 区域中，且该忙等待过程在释放 rq 锁并启用 IRQ 的情况下执行。 然而，现在调度器可以在回调函数排队期间释放 rq 锁；在此时间窗口内获取 rq 锁的操作（例如调度类变更路径和 scx 任务迭代器）会在释放锁时刷新待处理的平衡回调，从而导

Vulnerability Title
sched_ext: Keep kick_sync waiting on the rq's own CPU
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
sched_ext: Keep kick_sync waiting on the rq's own CPU
kick_sync_wait_bal_cb() assumes it runs on the rq's CPU from the
__schedule() tail: the snapshots it compares against live in that CPU's
percpu area and the busy-wait runs with the rq lock dropped and IRQs
enabled.
However, dispatch can now drop the rq lock while the callback sits queued,
and rq lock takers in that window (the sched class change paths, the scx
task iterator) flush pending balance callbacks on release, running the
callback on a foreign CPU. Such a run compares against unrelated snapshots
and can deadlock when the executing CPU is itself a wait target.
Bail on a foreign CPU and leave the wait state alone. The wait only observes
progress that the resched kicks already guarantee and the rq's next wait
picks up the stale cpus_to_sync bits.
