CVE-2025-38344

CVSS v3.1

5.5

Medium

VectorAV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions: Linux Kernel versions 4.12.0-rc4-next-20170608+ and earlier
Description: The Linux kernel contains an ACPICA cache leak in ACPI early abort cases. Specifically, the “Acpi-Parse” and “Acpi-parse ext” caches were found to be leaked due to the use of the SLAB NEVER MERGE flag in the kmem cache create() function. This occurs when the size of cache objects is the same as the slab cache size, leading to a merge of the “Acpi-State” cache.
Recommendations: Linux Kernel versions prior to 4.12.0-rc4-next-20170608+ should be updated.
