LIN1023-13042 : Security Advisory - linux - CVE-2025-37914

Created: May 20, 2025    Updated: May 25, 2025
Resolved Date: May 25, 2025
Found In Version: 10.23.30.1
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 23
Component/s: Kernel

Description

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

net_sched: ets: Fix double list add in class with netem as child qdisc

As described in Gerrard's report 1], there are use cases where a netem
child qdisc will make the parent qdisc's enqueue callback reentrant.
In the case of ets, there won't be a UAF, but the code will add the same
classifier to the list twice, which will cause memory corruption.

In addition to checking for qlen being zero, this patch checks whether
the class was already added to the active_list (cl_is_active) before
doing the addition to cater for the reentrant case.
