CVE ID : CVE-2025-37791
Published : May 1, 2025, 2:15 p.m. | 1 hour, 10 minutes ago
Description : In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ethtool: cmis_cdb: use correct rpl size in ethtool_cmis_module_poll()
rpl is passed as a pointer to ethtool_cmis_module_poll(), so the correct
size of rpl is sizeof(*rpl) which should be just 1 byte. Using the
pointer size instead can cause stack corruption:
Kernel panic – not syncing: stack-protector: Kernel stack is corrupted in: ethtool_cmis_wait_for_cond+0xf4/0x100
