Linux Distros Unpatched Vulnerability : CVE-2025-37754

high Nessus Plugin ID 250235

Language:

Synopsis

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed with a vulnerability that the vendor indicates will not be patched.

Description

The Linux/Unix host has one or more packages installed that are impacted by a vulnerability without a vendor supplied patch available.

 - drm/i915/huc: Fix fence not released on early probe errors HuC delayed loading fence, introduced with commit 27536e03271da (drm/i915/huc: track delayed HuC load with a fence), is registered with object tracker early on driver probe but unregistered only from driver remove, which is not called on early probe errors. Since its memory is allocated under devres, then released anyway, it may happen to be allocated again to the fence and reused on future driver probes, resulting in kernel warnings that taint the kernel:
