CVE-2025-38039

  2. Vulnerabilities (CVE)
  3. CVE-2025-38039
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/mlx5e: Avoid WARN_ON when configuring MQPRIO with HTB offload enabled When attempting to enable MQPRIO while HTB offload is already configured, the driver currently returns `-EINVAL` and triggers a `WARN_ON`, leading to an unnecessary call trace. Update the code to handle this case more gracefully by returning `-EOPNOTSUPP` instead, while also providing a helpful user message.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: net/mlx5e: Evitar WARN_ON al configurar MQPRIO con la descarga de HTB habilitada. Al intentar habilitar MQPRIO con la descarga de HTB ya configurada, el controlador devuelve `-EINVAL` y activa `WARN_ON`, lo que genera un seguimiento de llamadas innecesario. Actualice el código para gestionar este caso de forma más eficiente devolviendo `-EOPNOTSUPP` en su lugar y proporcionando un mensaje útil al usuario.
