In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

cpufreq: amd-pstate-ut: Fix kernel panic when loading the driver

After loading the amd-pstate-ut driver, amd_pstate_ut_check_perf() and amd_pstate_ut_check_freq() use cpufreq_cpu_get() to get the policy of the CPU and mark it as busy.

In these functions, cpufreq_cpu_put() should be used to release the policy, but it is not, so any other entity trying to access the policy is blocked indefinitely.

One such scenario is when amd_pstate mode is changed, leading to the following splat:
