CVE-2024-58090: sched/core: Prevent rescheduling when interrupts are disabled

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sched/core: Prevent rescheduling when interrupts are disabled David reported a warning observed while loop testing kexec jump: Interrupts enabled after irqrouter_resume+0x0/0x50 WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 560 at drivers/base/syscore.c:103 syscore_resume+0x18a/0x220 kernel_kexec+0xf6/0x180 __do_sys_reboot+0x206/0x250 do_syscall_64+0x95/0x180 The corresponding interrupt flag trace: hardirqs last enabled at (15573): [<ffffffffa8281b8e>] __up_console_sem+0x7e/0x90 hardirqs last disabled at (15580): [<ffffffffa8281b73>] __up_console_sem+0x63/0x90 That means __up_console_sem() was invoked with interrupts enabled. Further instrumentation revealed that in the interrupt disabled section of kexec jump one of the syscore_suspend() callbacks woke up a task, which set the NEED_RESCHED flag. A later callback in the resume path invoked cond_resched() which in turn led to the invocation of the scheduler: __cond_resched+0x21/0x60 down_timeout+0x18/0x60 acpi_os_wait_semaphore+0x4c/0x80 acpi_ut_acquire_mutex+0x3d/0x100 acpi_ns_get_node+0x27/0x60 acpi_ns_evaluate+0x1cb/0x2d0 acpi_rs_set_srs_method_data+0x156/0x190 acpi_pci_link_set+0x11c/0x290 irqrouter_resume+0x54/0x60 syscore_resume+0x6a/0x200 kernel_kexec+0x145/0x1c0 __do_sys_reboot+0xeb/0x240 do_syscall_64+0x95/0x180 This is a long standing problem, which probably got more visible with the recent printk changes. Something does a task wakeup and the scheduler sets the NEED_RESCHED flag. cond_resched() sees it set and invokes schedule() from a completely bogus context. The scheduler enables interrupts after context switching, which causes the above warning at the end. Quite some of the code paths in syscore_suspend()/resume() can result in triggering a wakeup with the exactly same consequences. They might not have done so yet, but as they share a lot of code with normal operations it's just a question of time. The problem only affects the PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY scheduling models. Full preemption is not affected as cond_resched() is disabled and the preemption check preemptible() takes the interrupt disabled flag into account. Cure the problem by adding a corresponding check into cond_resched().

Security readout for executives and security teams

Plain-English summary

This Linux kernel issue can let the scheduler run while interrupts are disabled during sensitive resume or kexec-related paths. That is invalid kernel context and can produce warnings or instability. The sources do not show remote exploitation, privilege escalation, or confirmed active abuse.

Executive priority

Treat as a normal-priority kernel maintenance item unless affected systems are highly sensitive to reboot, suspend, or kexec reliability. There is no source-backed evidence of active exploitation, but kernel correctness bugs still warrant timely patching.

Technical view

The flaw is in cond_resched() behavior for PREEMPT_NONE and PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY kernels. A wakeup during syscore suspend or resume can set NEED_RESCHED, causing cond_resched() to invoke schedule() while interrupts are disabled. Full preemption is described as unaffected.

Likely exposure

Exposure is limited to Linux systems running affected kernel builds with PREEMPT_NONE or PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY. Systems using vendor kernels should confirm whether their package includes the stable kernel fixes or Debian LTS updates referenced in the CVE data.

Exploitation context

The provided sources describe a kernel warning found during kexec jump loop testing. KEV is false, and no cited source reports active exploitation. The evidence supports a reliability and kernel correctness concern, not a proven public attack path.

Researcher notes

The key condition is NEED_RESCHED being set during interrupt-disabled syscore suspend or resume, followed by cond_resched(). The fix adds an interrupt-state-aware check. The source data lacks CVSS, CWE, and detailed exploitability analysis.

Mitigation direction

  • Apply vendor kernel updates that include the referenced stable fixes.
  • Check Debian LTS advisories if running Debian LTS kernels.
  • Prioritize systems using PREEMPT_NONE or PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY kernel configurations.
  • Track vendor guidance for exact fixed package versions.
  • Reboot into the updated kernel after maintenance approval.

Validation and detection

  • Inventory Linux kernel versions across servers and appliances.
  • Check kernel preemption configuration for PREEMPT_NONE or PREEMPT_VOLUNTARY.
  • Compare installed kernel changelogs against referenced stable commits.
  • Confirm vendor advisories mark the installed package as fixed.
  • Review kernel logs for related syscore resume or interrupt warnings.
