      <title>CVE-2025-38298 — EDAC/skx_common: Fix general protection fault</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2025-38298</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;EDAC/skx_common: Fix general protection fault&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;After loading i10nm_edac (which automatically loads skx_edac_common), if
unload only i10nm_edac, then reload it and perform error injection testing,
a general protection fault may occur:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;mce: [Hardware Error]: Machine check events logged
  Oops: general protection fault ...
  ...
  Workqueue: events mce_gen_pool_process
  RIP: 0010:string+0x53/0xe0
  ...
  Call Trace:
  &amp;lt;TASK&amp;gt;
  ? die_addr+0x37/0x90
  ? exc_general_protection+0x1e7/0x3f0
  ? asm_exc_general_protection+0x26/0x30
  ? string+0x53/0xe0
  vsnprintf+0x23e/0x4c0
  snprintf+0x4d/0x70
  skx_adxl_decode+0x16a/0x330 [skx_edac_common]
  skx_mce_check_error.part.0+0xf8/0x220 [skx_edac_common]
  skx_mce_check_error+0x17/0x20 [skx_edac_common]
  ...&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The issue arose was because the variable &amp;#39;adxl_component_count&amp;#39; (inside
skx_edac_common), which counts the ADXL components, was not reset. During
the reloading of i10nm_edac, the count was incremented by the actual number
of ADXL components again, resulting in a count that was double the real
number of ADXL components. This led to an out-of-bounds reference to the
ADXL component array, causing the general protection fault above.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fix this issue by resetting the &amp;#39;adxl_component_count&amp;#39; in adxl_put(),
which is called during the unloading of {skx,i10nm}_edac.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
