# CVE-2025-22011: ARM: dts: bcm2711: Fix xHCI power-domain

> A kernel bug causes VPU firmware crashes during suspend/resume on Raspberry Pi devices, leading to system instability or denial of service.

- **Severity:** Medium 5.5 (`CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H`)
- **Exploited in the wild:** Not known
- **Login needed:** Any signed-in user
- **Attackable:** Local or same network only
- **Victim action needed:** Not needed
- **Fix available:** Yes
- **Published:** 8 Apr 2025
- **Updated:** 11 May 2026
- **Also known as:** BELL-CVE-2025-22011, DEBIAN-CVE-2025-22011, GHSA-rcwx-9pp2-6rpj, ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2025-22011, UBUNTU-CVE-2025-22011

## What is CVE-2025-22011?

CVE-2025-22011 is a medium-severity denial of service vulnerability in Linux kernel, published on 8 Apr 2025. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.

### Official description

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

ARM: dts: bcm2711: Fix xHCI power-domain

During s2idle tests on the Raspberry CM4 the VPU firmware always crashes
on xHCI power-domain resume:

root@raspberrypi:/sys/power# echo freeze > state
[   70.724347] xhci_suspend finished
[   70.727730] xhci_plat_suspend finished
[   70.755624] bcm2835-power bcm2835-power: Power grafx off
[   70.761127]  USB: Set power to 0

[   74.653040]  USB: Failed to set power to 1 (-110)

This seems to be caused because of the mixed usage of
raspberrypi-power and bcm2835-power at the same time. So avoid
the usage of the VPU firmware power-domain driver, which
prevents the VPU crash.

## Fix prompt for AI coding agents

```text
Check this codebase for CVE-2025-22011 and fix it if it is affected.

What it is: CVE-2025-22011 is a medium-severity denial of service vulnerability in Linux kernel, published on 8 Apr 2025. It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.
Exploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-22011 in the wild and no public exploit code.

Affected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.

Task:
1. Search the dependency manifests and lockfiles (for example package.json, package-lock.json, requirements.txt, poetry.lock, uv.lock, pom.xml, build.gradle, go.mod, Cargo.lock, Gemfile.lock) and any Dockerfiles for the affected packages, including transitive dependencies.
2. If an affected version is in use, upgrade it to the fixed version for its release line with the project's package manager, so the lockfile is regenerated. Prefer the smallest upgrade that fixes it.
3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.
4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.
5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.
