Detail

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

workqueue: Don't call cpumask_test_cpu() with -1 CPU in wq_update_node_max_active()

For wq_update_node_max_active(), @off_cpu of -1 indicates that no CPU is going down. The function was incorrectly calling cpumask_test_cpu() with -1 CPU leading to oopses like the following on some archs:

Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address ffff0002100296e0
..
