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-2025-40188 in the wild and no public exploit code.\n\nAffected product: 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-2025-40188/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-40188/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-40188","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-40188/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-40188","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2025-40188","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-40188","GHSA-rmrr-hcc6-xrj4","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-11-CVE-2025-40188","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-13-CVE-2025-40188","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2025-40188","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-40188"],"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":"none","summary":"A bug in the Berlin PWM driver causes a kernel panic during suspend/resume, leading to a local denial of service.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"analysis_generated_by":"qwen3.8-flash-next","assigner":"Linux","cpe":[],"cvss":{"score":null,"severity":null,"source":null,"vector":null,"version":null},"cwes":[],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\npwm: berlin: Fix wrong register in suspend/resume\n\nThe 'enable' register should be BERLIN_PWM_EN rather than\nBERLIN_PWM_ENABLE, otherwise, the driver accesses wrong address, there\nwill be cpu exception then kernel panic during suspend/resume.","ecosystems":[],"exploits":{"exploitdb":0,"first_seen":null,"github_poc":0,"max_poc_stars":null,"metasploit":0,"nuclei":0,"refs":[],"tier":"none_known"},"has_fix":true,"headline":"pwm: berlin: Fix wrong register in suspend/resume","id":"CVE-2025-40188","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":null,"products":[],"type":"denial_of_service","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":8,"next":{"headline":"net: usb: lan78xx: Fix lost EEPROM read timeout error(-ETIMEDOUT) in lan78xx_read_raw_eeprom","id":"CVE-2025-40189"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"net/sctp: fix a null dereference in sctp_disposition sctp_sf_do_5_1D_ce()","id":"CVE-2025-40187"},"products":["Linux"],"published":"2025-11-12","related":[],"sources":[{"class":"attribution","licence":"CVE Terms of Use (MITRE)","name":"CVE List","prefix":"CVE"}],"ssvc":{"automatable":null,"exploitation":null,"technical_impact":null},"state":"PUBLISHED","updated":"2026-05-11","vendors":["Linux"]},"summary":"A bug in the Berlin PWM driver causes a kernel panic during suspend/resume, leading to a local denial of service.","url":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-40188/"}
