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-2025-38723 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-2025-38723/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38723/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-38723","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-38723/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-38723","record":{"aliases":["AZL-66791","BELL-CVE-2025-38723","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-38723","GHSA-wvjq-jmp5-gvcr","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2025-38723","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2025-38723","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-38723"],"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 bug in the Linux kernel's LoongArch BPF JIT compiler causes incorrect jump offsets, leading to CPU soft lockups and denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[{"product":"debian_linux","vendor":"debian"},{"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":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nLoongArch: BPF: Fix jump offset calculation in tailcall\n\nThe extra pass of bpf_int_jit_compile() skips JIT context initialization\nwhich essentially skips offset calculation leaving out_offset = -1, so\nthe jmp_offset in emit_bpf_tail_call is calculated by\n\n\"#define jmp_offset (out_offset - (cur_offset))\"\n\nis a negative number, which is wrong.
