CVE-2024-56583
MediumIn the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: sched/deadline: Fix warning in migrate_enable for boosted tasks When running the following command: while true; do stress-ng --cyclic 30 --timeout 30s --minimize --quiet done a warning is eventually triggered: WARNING: CPU: 43 PID: 2848 at kernel/sched/deadline.c:794 setup_new_dl_entity+0x13e/0x180 ...

If the task is boosted, the warning is triggered. A boosted task already had its parameters set by rt_mutex_setprio, and a new call to setup_new_dl_entity is unnecessary, hence the WARN_ON call. Check if we are requeueing a boosted task and avoid calling setup_new_dl_entity if that's the case.
