GHSA-F6M9-QFP4-RPHW
Vulnerability from github – Published: 2024-07-12 15:31 – Updated: 2025-11-04 00:30In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
serial: imx: Introduce timeout when waiting on transmitter empty
By waiting at most 1 second for USR2_TXDC to be set, we avoid a potential deadlock.
In case of the timeout, there is not much we can do, so we simply ignore the transmitter state and optimistically try to continue.
