What the advisory describes
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ALSA: seq: oss: Serialize readq reset state with q->lock snd_seq_oss_readq_clear() resets qlen, head, and tail without q->lock even though the normal reader and producer paths serialize the same ring state under that spinlock. A reset can therefore race snd_seq_oss_readq_free() or snd_seq_oss_readq_put_event() and leave stale records in the queue, drop freshly queued ones, or report the wrong readiness after wakeup. KCSAN reports a data race between snd_seq_oss_readq_clear() and snd_seq_oss_readq_free(). Take q->lock while clearing the ring and resetting input_time. Factor the enqueue logic into a caller-locked helper so snd_seq_oss_readq_put_timestamp() updates its suppression state under the same lock instead of racing the reset path. The buggy scenario involves two paths, with each column showing the order within that path: reset path: locked readq updater: 1. snd_seq_oss_reset() or 1. A reader or callback producer release reaches takes q->lock on the same queue. snd_seq_oss_readq_clear(). 2. snd_seq_oss_readq_clear() 2. The updater tests or modifies resets qlen, head, tail, qlen, head, and tail. and input_time. 3. snd_seq_oss_readq_clear() 3. The updater completes its wakes sleepers on read-modify-write sequence. q->midi_sleep. 4. Without q->lock, the reset 4. The resulting ring state drives can overlap the locked later reads and readiness. update.
