UBUNTU-CVE-2025-21904: Medium severity ubuntu/linux vulnerability

Q: What level of access does an attacker need?

Exploitation requires local access and low privileges. No user interaction is required.

Q: What is the likely security impact?

The reported impact is high availability impact, with no confidentiality or integrity impact indicated.

Q: Which Ubuntu kernel package families are listed as affected?

The listed packages are ubuntu/linux, ubuntu/linux-aws, ubuntu/linux-azure, ubuntu/linux-gcp, and their FIPS variants: ubuntu/linux-fips, ubuntu/linux-aws-fips, ubuntu/linux-azure-fips, and ubuntu/linux-gcp-fips.

Published Apr 1, 2025

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: caifvirtio: fix wrong pointer check in cfvprobe() delvqs() frees virtqueues, therefore cfv->vqtx pointer should be checked for NULL before calling it, not cfv->vdev. Also the current implementation is redundant because the pointer cfv->vdev is dereferenced before it is checked for NULL. Fix this by checking cfv->vqtx for NULL instead of cfv->vdev before calling delvqs().
