Short explanation
A race condition can occur between break ioctl operations and hangup events in the Linux kernel tty subsystem. This may lead to calling a tty driver for a device that is already gone or powered down. The patch status cannot be reliably concluded from official sources.
The vulnerability can cause instability because it may invoke the tty driver after the device has been removed or powered down. Aborting TCSBRK and TCSBRKP operations prevents calling back into the driver after a user-controlled timeout.
What should be done?
- Follow vendor advisories
- Ensure drivers disable break state on shutdown
- Review kernel updates
The sources give limited detail on some technical conditions. Review the chain of evidence below before deciding how to act.

Break ioctl işlemleri hat kapatma ile yarışarak ortadan kalkmış bir tty sürücüsünün çağrılmasına yol açabilir.
Sürücülerin kapanma esnasında break durumunu devre dışı bırakması gerekmektedir.
Show the technical text from the sources
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: tty: abort break signalling on hangup The break ioctls can race with hangup and end up calling into a tty driver for a device that is already gone or powered down. Drivers must handle this race, but TCSBRK and TCSBRKP should still be aborted to avoid calling back into the driver after a user-controlled timeout (possibly even after the tty has been reopened). Note that drivers should disable any break state on shutdown so just return on hangup (calling break_ctl() again is racy and will most likely fail for drivers handling the race).
