It can only be exploited from the same machine or local network, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-37907 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Linux kernel. No package-level version data is available, so check the vendor advisory linked from the reference page.\n\nTask:\n1. 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.\n2. 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.\n3. If there is no fix, or the upgrade would break the build, do not guess: explain the risk and the safest workaround instead.\n4. Run the tests and summarise what changed and why.\n5. If nothing in the project is affected, say so and change nothing.\n\nReference: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-37907/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-37907/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-37907","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-37907/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-37907","record":{"aliases":["AZL-62821","BELL-CVE-2025-37907","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-37907","GHSA-73j2-7869-745f","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2025-37907","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2025-37907","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-37907"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A locking order error in the Linux kernel's Intel VPU driver causes a deadlock during job submission and abort handling, leading to system denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":5.5,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-667","name":"Improper Locking"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\naccel/ivpu: Fix locking order in ivpu_job_submit\n\nFix deadlock in job submission and abort handling.\nWhen a thread aborts currently executing jobs due to a fault,\nit first locks the global lock protecting submitted_jobs (#1).\n\nAfter the last job is destroyed, it proceeds to release the related context\nand locks file_priv (#2).
