This and couple of others are all having the same pattern. Adding
READ_ONCE for an integer value with a claim that this might race with
sysctl updates. While the claim about the race is correct I fail to see
how this could have any security consequences. Even if a partial write
was observed which sounds _more_ than theoretical these all are merely
timeouts and delays.
Is there anything I am missing?
Nope, you are right, our fault, I'll go revoke this now.
please also revoke all others touching the same function.
I don't see any other CVEs that reference that function, but I do see
some that reference the same type of issue in the same file:
CVE-2024-27420
CVE-2024-27421
CVE-2024-27430
are those what you are referring to? If not, which ones do you think
also should be revoked?
