Vulnerability Data

When setting up interrupt remapping for legacy PCI(-X) devices, including PCI(-X) bridges, a lookup of the upstream bridge is required. This lookup, itself involving acquiring of a lock, is done in a context where acquiring that lock is unsafe. This…

Mitigating Controls (NIST 800-53 r5) AI

Developer testing and evaluation activities can exercise concurrent paths and resource contention to discover deadlock conditions before deployment.

Security engineering principles applied during design can incorporate synchronization ordering, timeouts, and resource hierarchies that structurally avoid deadlock formation.

finds

Security testing in development can detect deadlock conditions through stress and concurrency testing.

prevents

Secure development lifecycle requires deadlock analysis and avoidance techniques during design and coding.

prevents

Secure system architecture principles include concurrency controls and resource-locking discipline that prevent deadlock.

prevents

Secure coding standards mandate safe lock ordering, timeouts, and deadlock detection patterns.

none

Change management may catch deadlock-related defects during reviews but does not directly address concurrency design.
