CVE-2025-38356
Estado: AnalizadaMedia (5.5)—
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
drm/xe/guc: Explicitly exit CT safe mode on unwind
During driver probe we might be briefly using CT safe mode, which is based on a delayed work, but usually we are able to stop this once we have IRQ fully operational. However, if we abort the probe quite early then during unwind we might try to destroy the workqueue while there is still a pending delayed work that attempts to restart itself which triggers a WARN.
This was recently observed during unsuccessful VF initialization:
Exit the CT safe mode on unwind to avoid that warning.
