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-2025-71108 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-2025-71108/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-71108/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-71108","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-71108/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-71108","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2025-71108","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-71108","GHSA-6q3j-74vv-fx6w","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2025-71108","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2025-71108","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-71108"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"adjacent_or_local","non_default_config":false,"product_category":"Linux kernel USB driver","requires_auth":"low_privilege","summary":"A Linux kernel USB driver flaw allows buggy firmware to cause system boot failures, requiring a patch to handle invalid connector counts.","user_interaction":"not_required","vuln_class":"denial_of_service"},"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-20","name":"Improper Input Validation"}],"description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nusb: typec: ucsi: Handle incorrect num_connectors capability\n\nThe UCSI spec states that the num_connectors field is 7 bits, and the\n8th bit is reserved and should be set to zero.\nSome buggy FW has been known to set this bit, and it can lead to a\nsystem not booting.\nFlag that the FW is not behaving correctly, and auto-fix the value\nso that the system boots correctly.\n\nFound on Lenovo P1 G8 during Linux enablement program.
