Vulnerability from github
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iio: accel: fxls8962af: Fix use after free in fxls8962af_fifo_flush
fxls8962af_fifo_flush() uses indio_dev->active_scan_mask (with iio_for_each_active_channel()) without making sure the indio_dev stays in buffer mode. There is a race if indio_dev exits buffer mode in the middle of the interrupt that flushes the fifo. Fix this by calling synchronize_irq() to ensure that no interrupt is currently running when disabling buffer mode.
