CVE-2025-39831

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions prior to 6.17.0-rc2-virtme #134

Description The fbnic driver had an issue where phylink resume was invoked as part of the fbnic up path while not holding the RTNL lock. This could lead to locking assertions during PM resume. The fix involves moving the phylink resume operation into the ndo open path, ensuring correct locking and bringing the phylink interface online simultaneously with the network interface.

Recommendations Update to a version of the Linux kernel newer than 6.17.0-rc2-virtme #134.
