Details

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

usb: cdns3: fix random warning message when driver load

Warning log: [ 4.141392] Unexpected gfp: 0x4 (GFP_DMA32). Fixing up to gfp: 0xa20 (GFP_ATOMIC). Fix your code! [ 4.150340] CPU: 1 PID: 175 Comm: 1-0050 Not tainted 5.15.5-00039-g2fd9ae1b568c #20 [ 4.158010] Hardware name: Freescale i.MX8QXP MEK (DT) [ 4.163155] Call trace: [ 4.165600] dump_backtrace+0x0/0x1b0 [ 4.169286] show_stack+0x18/0x68 [ 4.172611] dump_stack_lvl+0x68/0x84 [ 4.176286] dump_stack+0x18/0x34 [ 4.179613] kmalloc_fix_flags+0x60/0x88 [ 4.183550] new_slab+0x334/0x370 [ 4.186878] slaballoc.part.108+0x4d4/0x748 [ 4.191419] slab_alloc.isra.109+0x30/0x78 [ 4.195702] kmem_cache_alloc+0x40c/0x420 [ 4.199725] dma_pool_alloc+0xac/0x1f8 [ 4.203486] cdns3_allocate_trb_pool+0xb4/0xd0

kmalloc was called with mem_flags, which is passed down in cdns3_allocate_trb_pool() and have GFP_DMA32 flags. kmall_fix_flags() report warning.

GFP_DMA32 is not useful at all. dma_alloc_coherent() will handle DMA memory region correctly by pool->dev. GFP_DMA32 can be removed safely.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
