CVE-2025-40232

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

Description A flaw exists in the Linux kernel related to inconsistent iterator handling within the enabled monitors seq ops callbacks. Specifically, some callbacks treat the iterator as a struct rv monitor *, while others treat it as a struct list head *. This inconsistency leads to an incorrect type cast and can cause system crashes. The issue is resolved by converting all iterator handling to use struct list head *, aligning it with available monitors.

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