CVE-2025-21749 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net: rose: lock the socket in rose_bind() syzbot reported a soft lockup in rose_loopback_timer(), with a repro calling bind() from multiple threads. rose_bind() must lock the socket to avoid this issue.
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's handling of the ROSE (Routing Over Serial Lines) protocol has been identified. The issue arises in the rose_bind() function, where the socket is not properly locked. This oversight can lead to a soft lockup, particularly when bind() is called from multiple threads. The vulnerability has been addressed by ensuring that rose_bind() locks the socket to prevent such lockups.
