An attacker can exploit it over the internet without logging in, with no action from the victim.\nExploitation: There is no known exploitation of CVE-2025-71132 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-2025-71132/ (Markdown: https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-71132/index.md)","id":"CVE-2025-71132","markdown":"https://insights.sbomify.com/CVE-2025-71132/index.md","name":"CVE-2025-71132","record":{"aliases":["BELL-CVE-2025-71132","DEBIAN-CVE-2025-71132","GHSA-52xq-4j7g-g3fj","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-12-CVE-2025-71132","ROOT-OS-DEBIAN-13-CVE-2025-71132","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2204-CVE-2025-71132","ROOT-OS-UBUNTU-2404-CVE-2025-71132","UBUNTU-CVE-2025-71132"],"analysis":{"component_type":"kernel","fix_type":"patch","impacts":["denial_of_service"],"network_reachable":"yes","non_default_config":true,"product_category":"Linux kernel driver","requires_auth":"none","summary":"A race condition in the smc91x network driver under PREEMPT_RT can cause kernel warnings and potential instability, requiring a patch to fix IRQ context handling.","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":7.5,"severity":"high","source":"cna","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:N/AC:L/PR:N/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\nsmc91x: fix broken irq-context in PREEMPT_RT\n\nWhen smc91x.c is built with PREEMPT_RT, the following splat occurs\nin FVP_RevC:\n\n[   13.055000] smc91x LNRO0003:00 eth0: link up, 10Mbps, half-duplex, lpa 0x0000\n[   13.062137] BUG: workqueue leaked atomic, lock or RCU: kworker/2:1[106]\n[   13.062137]      preempt=0x00000000 lock=0-\u003e0 RCU=0-\u003e1 workfn=mld_ifc_work\n[   13.062266] C\n** replaying previous printk message **\n[   13.062266] CPU: 2 UID: 0 PID: 106 Comm: kworker/2:1 Not tainted 6.18.0-dirty #179 PREEMPT_{RT,(full)}\n[   13.062353] Hardware name:  , BIOS\n[   13.062382] Workqueue: mld mld_ifc_work\n[   13.062469] Call trace:\n[   13.062494]  show_stack+0x24/0x40 (C)\n[   13.062602]  __dump_stack+0x28/0x48\n[   13.062710]  dump_stack_lvl+0x7c/0xb0\n[   13.062818]  dump_stack+0x18/0x34\n[   13.062926]  process_scheduled_works+0x294/0x450\n[   13.063043]  worker_thread+0x260/0x3d8\n[   13.063124]  kthread+0x1c4/0x228\n[   13.063235]  ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20\n\nThis happens because smc_special_trylock() disables IRQs even on PREEMPT_RT,\nbut smc_special_unlock() does not restore IRQs on PREEMPT_RT.\nThe reason is that smc_special_unlock() calls spin_unlock_irqrestore(),\nand rcu_read_unlock_bh() in __dev_queue_xmit() cannot invoke\nrcu_read_unlock() through __local_bh_enable_ip() when current-\u003esoftirq_disable_cnt becomes zero.\n\nTo address this issue, replace smc_special_trylock() with spin_trylock_irqsave().","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":"smc91x: fix broken irq-context in PREEMPT_RT","id":"CVE-2025-71132","indexable":true,"kev":null,"kind":"cve","links":{"ecosystem":null,"product":"linux:linux_kernel","products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"type":"race_condition","year":"2025"},"n_packages":0,"n_references":6,"next":{"headline":"RDMA/irdma: avoid invalid read in irdma_net_event","id":"CVE-2025-71133"},"packages":[],"prev":{"headline":"crypto: seqiv -
