However, this function is called from the upper ALSA\ncore function snd_ctl_elem_write(), which already holds the write lock on\ncontrols_rwsem for the whole put operation. So there is no need to simply\nhold the lock for fsl_xcvr_activate_ctl() again.\n\nAcquiring the read lock while holding the write lock in the same thread\nresults in a deadlock and a hung task, as reported by Alexander Stein.","published":"2026-06-03T18:16:28.000Z","lastModified":"2026-07-22T20:10:00.000Z","status":"Analyzed","sourceIdentifier":"416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67","cvss":{"version":"3.1","score":5.5,"severity":"MEDIUM","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H"},"cwe":["CWE-667"],"affected":["linux/linux kernel"],"epss":{"score":0.00091,"percentile":0.00475,"date":"2026-10-26","history":[]},"kev":{"listed":false},"exploits":{"count":0,"verified":false,"firstPublished":null,"source":"Exploit-DB (https://gitlab.com/exploit-database/exploitdb)","entries":[]},"verdict":{"level":"low","text":"Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.09%).
