Vulnerability from github – Published: 2025-05-02 18:31 – Updated: 2025-11-10 18:30

Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

i40e: Fix kernel crash during reboot when adapter is in recovery mode

If the driver detects during probe that firmware is in recovery mode then i40e_init_recovery_mode() is called and the rest of probe function is skipped including pci_set_drvdata(). Subsequent i40e_shutdown() called during shutdown/reboot dereferences NULL pointer as pci_get_drvdata() returns NULL.

To fix call pci_set_drvdata() also during entering to recovery mode.

Reproducer: 1) Lets have i40e NIC with firmware in recovery mode 2) Run reboot

Detection rules are retrieved from Rulezet.

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
