      "summary": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nperf/x86/intel/uncore: Fix uncore_box ref/unref ordering\n\nIn uncore_event_cpu_online(), uncore_box_ref() was called before\nuncore_change_context().  uncore_box_ref() gates on box->cpu >= 0,\nbut box->cpu is still -1 at that point because uncore_change_context()\nhas not run yet.  As a result, the box is never initialized on the\nfirst CPU to come online in a die, leaving it permanently\nuninitialized in the single-CPU-per-die case.\n\nThus, box->refcnt is one count below the true value, and in the CPU\noffline path, the box will be torn down on the second-to-last CPU.\n\nIn uncore_event_cpu_offline(), uncore_box_unref() was called after\nuncore_change_context(), so box->cpu is already -1 when the collector\nCPU goes offline, which prevents it from tearing down the box.\n\nFix by swapping the call order in both paths so that\nuncore_box_{ref,unref}() runs at the point where box->cpu reflects\nthe correct context.\n\nMove allocate_boxes() out of uncore_box_ref() to enable this\nreordering.",
