{"id":"AZL-70825","summary":"CVE-2025-39763 affecting package kernel 5.15.200.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nACPI: APEI: send SIGBUS to current task if synchronous memory error not recovered\n\nIf a synchronous error is detected as a result of user-space process\ntriggering a 2-bit uncorrected error, the CPU will take a synchronous\nerror exception such as Synchronous External Abort (SEA) on Arm64. The\nkernel will queue a memory_failure() work which poisons the related\npage, unmaps the page, and then sends a SIGBUS to the process, so that\na system wide panic can be avoided.\n\nHowever, no memory_failure() work will be queued when abnormal\nsynchronous errors occur. These errors can include situations like\ninvalid PA, unexpected severity, no memory failure config support,\ninvalid GUID section, etc. In such a case, the user-space process will\ntrigger SEA again.  This loop can potentially exceed the platform\nfirmware threshold or even trigger a kernel hard lockup, leading to a\nsystem reboot.\n\nFix it by performing a force kill if no memory_failure() work is queued\nfor synchronous errors.\n\n[ rjw: Changelog edits ]","modified":"2026-04-01T05:21:59.293736Z","published":"2025-09-11T17:15:40Z","upstream":["CVE-2025-39763"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-39763"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:2","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"last_affected":"5.15.200.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-70825.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5"}
