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-2025-38048 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: Debian Debian Linux. 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-2025-38048/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38048/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-38048","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38048/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-38048","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2025-38048","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-38048","GHSA-3mg3-84hp-h85m","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2025-38048","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2025-38048","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2025-38048","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2025-38048","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-38048"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A data race in the Linux kernel's virtio_ring driver can cause temporary notification delays, potentially leading to denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"race_condition"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"product":"linux_kernel","vendor":"linux"}],"cvss":{"score":4.7,"severity":"medium","source":"nvd","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:H/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","version":"3.1"},"cwes":[{"id":"CWE-362","name":"Concurrent Execution using Shared Resource with Improper Synchronization"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nvirtio_ring: Fix data race by tagging event_triggered as racy for KCSAN\n\nsyzbot reports a data-race when accessing the event_triggered, here is the\nsimplified stack when the issue occurred:\n\n==================================================================\nBUG: KCSAN: data-race in virtqueue_disable_cb / virtqueue_enable_cb_delayed\n\nwrite to 0xffff8881025bc452 of 1 bytes by task 3288 on cpu 0:\n virtqueue_enable_cb_delayed+0x42/0x3c0 drivers/virtio/virtio_ring.c:2653\n start_xmit+0x230/0x1310 drivers/net/virtio_net.c:3264\n __netdev_start_xmit include/linux/netdevice.h:5151 [inline]\n netdev_start_xmit include/linux/netdevice.h:5160 [inline]\n xmit_one net/core/dev.c:3800 [inline]\n\nread to 0xffff8881025bc452 of 1 bytes by interrupt on cpu 1:\n virtqueue_disable_cb_split drivers/virtio/virtio_ring.c:880 [inline]\n virtqueue_disable_cb+0x92/0x180 drivers/virtio/virtio_ring.c:2566\n skb_xmit_done+0x5f/0x140 drivers/net/virtio_net.c:777\n vring_interrupt+0x161/0x190 drivers/virtio/virtio_ring.c:2715\n __handle_irq_event_percpu+0x95/0x490 kernel/irq/handle.c:158\n handle_irq_event_percpu kernel/irq/handle.c:193 [inline]\n\nvalue changed: 0x01 -\u003e 0x00\n==================================================================\n\nWhen the data race occurs, the function virtqueue_enable_cb_delayed() sets\nevent_triggered to false, and virtqueue_disable_cb_split/packed() reads it\nas false due to the race condition.
