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

Input: ims-pcu - fix race condition in reset_device sysfs callback

The ims_pcu_reset_device() sysfs callback calls ims_pcu_execute_command()
without acquiring pcu->cmd_mutex. This can lead to data races and
corruption of the shared command buffer if triggered concurrently with
other commands.

Acquire pcu->cmd_mutex before calling ims_pcu_execute_command().
