CVE-2025-38046

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description The issue arises from compatibility problems between Linux and XenServer on Windows machines, where a platform device with ID 2 is used instead of the expected ID 1. This discrepancy causes Linux to crash due to missing initialization, specifically grant tables, when it detects Xen but cannot find the expected Xen platform device. The problem is identified by a crash in the gnttab expand function.

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