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-2025-38114 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-2025-38114/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38114/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-38114","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38114/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-38114","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2025-38114","GHSA-r64j-946x-g525","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-38114"],"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 race condition in the e1000 network driver can cause a deadlock, leading to a 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\ne1000: Move cancel_work_sync to avoid deadlock\n\nPreviously, e1000_down called cancel_work_sync for the e1000 reset task\n(via e1000_down_and_stop), which takes RTNL.\n\nAs reported by users and syzbot, a deadlock is possible in the following\nscenario:\n\nCPU 0:\n  - RTNL is held\n  - e1000_close\n  - e1000_down\n  - cancel_work_sync (cancel / wait for e1000_reset_task())\n\nCPU 1:\n  - process_one_work\n  - e1000_reset_task\n  - take RTNL\n\nTo remedy this, avoid calling cancel_work_sync from e1000_down\n(e1000_reset_task does nothing if the device is down anyway).
