UBUNTU-CVE-2025-68192: High severity ubuntu/linux-azure vulnerability

Q: Which systems are most likely to be affected?

Systems running one of the listed Ubuntu kernel packages and using the qmi_wwan driver with a qmimux0 interface are affected by the vulnerable code path. The documented crash scenario is ARM or ARM64 systems running IPsec over qmimux0.

Q: What conditions are required to trigger the failure?

The issue occurs when Raw IP packets received through qmimux0 reach xfrm or another subsystem that accesses the uninitialized MAC-header offset. The provided example shows the failure during IPv6 ESP/IPsec processing in xfrm_input.

Q: How can I recognize an affected system that has already hit this issue?

A triggered system can panic with an ARM64 alignment-related kernel Oops. The example trace includes xfrm_input, xfrm6_rcv, xfrm6_esp_rcv, ipv6_rcv, and net_rx_action.

Updated

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: usb: qmiwwan: initialize MAC header offset in qmimuxrxfixup Raw IP packets have no MAC header, leaving skb->macheader uninitialized. This can trigger kernel panics on ARM64 when xfrm or other subsystems access the offset due to strict alignment checks. Initialize the MAC header to prevent such crashes. This can trigger kernel panics on ARM when running IPsec over the qmimux0 interface. Example trace: Internal error: Oops: 000000009600004f [#1] SMP CPU: 0 UID: 0 PID: 0 Comm: swapper/0 Not tainted 6.12.34-gbe78e49cb433 #1 Hardware name: LS1028A RDB Board (DT) pstate: 60000005 (nZCv daif -PAN -UAO -TCO -DIT -SSBS BTYPE=--) pc : xfrminput+0xde8/0x1318 lr : xfrminput+0x61c/0x1318 sp : ffff800080003b20 Call trace: xfrminput+0xde8/0x1318 xfrm6rcv+0x38/0x44 xfrm6esprcv+0x48/0xa8 ip6protocoldeliverrcu+0x94/0x4b0 ip6inputfinish+0x44/0x70 ip6input+0x44/0xc0 ipv6rcv+0x6c/0x114 netifreceiveskbonecore+0x5c/0x8c netifreceiveskb+0x18/0x60 processbacklog+0x78/0x17c napipoll+0x38/0x180 netrxaction+0x168/0x2f0

Frequently Asked Questions

Which systems are most likely to be affected?

Systems running one of the listed Ubuntu kernel packages and using the qmi_wwan driver with a qmimux0 interface are affected by the vulnerable code path. The documented crash scenario is ARM or ARM64 systems running IPsec over qmimux0.

What conditions are required to trigger the failure?

The issue occurs when Raw IP packets received through qmimux0 reach xfrm or another subsystem that accesses the uninitialized MAC-header offset. The provided example shows the failure during IPv6 ESP/IPsec processing in xfrm_input.

How can I recognize an affected system that has already hit this issue?

A triggered system can panic with an ARM64 alignment-related kernel Oops. The example trace includes xfrm_input, xfrm6_rcv, xfrm6_esp_rcv, ipv6_rcv, and net_rx_action.
