      <title>CVE-2025-40147 — blk-throttle: fix access race during throttle policy activation</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2025-40147</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;blk-throttle: fix access race during throttle policy activation&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;On repeated cold boots we occasionally hit a NULL pointer crash in
blk_should_throtl() when throttling is consulted before the throttle
policy is fully enabled for the queue. Checking only q-&amp;gt;td != NULL is
insufficient during early initialization, so blkg_to_pd() for the
throttle policy can still return NULL and blkg_to_tg() becomes NULL,
which later gets dereferenced.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer dereference
