CVE-2024-36936
Disclosure Date: May 30, 2024 (last updated October 10, 2024)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
efi/unaccepted: touch soft lockup during memory accept
Commit 50e782a86c98 ("efi/unaccepted: Fix soft lockups caused by
parallel memory acceptance") has released the spinlock so other CPUs can
do memory acceptance in parallel and not triggers softlockup on other
CPUs.
However the softlock up was intermittent shown up if the memory of the
TD guest is large, and the timeout of softlockup is set to 1 second:
