UBUNTU-CVE-2025-21885: High severity ubuntu/linux-hwe-edge vulnerability

Q: Which systems are exposed to this issue?

The affected software list includes Ubuntu linux-realtime, linux-azure, linux-gcp, linux-gke, linux-gkeop, linux-riscv, linux-aws-fips, and linux-azure-fips kernels. The reported failure involves the bnxt_re RDMA driver and an SRQ created by a kernel consumer.

Q: What conditions trigger the observed failure?

The kernel panic was observed when using an NVMe target with use_srq enabled. The failure occurs during SRQ creation in the bnxt_re driver and manifests as a divide error, resulting in a denial of service.

Q: What access does an attacker need?

The supplied severity vector indicates local access, low attack complexity, low privileges required, and no user interaction. The provided data does not describe a remote attack path.
