Description A vulnerability in the Linux kernel has been resolved, related to the arm64 architecture, specifically the imx8mm-verdin device tree.

The call trace indicates the error occurs in the phy error function. To address this, the feature of powering down the ethernet phy has been disabled due to the lack of functionality in the phy subsystem to handle this operation.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
