CVE-2025-38386

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

Description The Linux kernel contains a flaw within the ACPICA component. A platform firmware update increasing the number of method parameters, without a corresponding update to its callers, caused ACPICA to crash due to a use-after-free condition. The issue is addressed by preventing ACPICA from evaluating a method if the caller provides fewer arguments than expected.

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