Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: x86/kexec: Fix bug with call depth tracking The call to ccplatformhas() triggers a fault and system crash if call depth tracking is active because the GS segment has been reset by loadsegments() and GSBASE is now 0 but call depth tracking uses per-CPU variables to operate. Call ccplatformhas() earlier in the function when GS is still valid. [ bp: Massage. ]
