      <title>CVE-2025-38233 — powerpc64/ftrace: fix clobbered r15 during livepatching</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2025-38233</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;powerpc64/ftrace: fix clobbered r15 during livepatching&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;While r15 is clobbered always with PPC_FTRACE_OUT_OF_LINE, it is
not restored in livepatch sequence leading to not so obvious fails
like below:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;BUG: Unable to handle kernel data access on write at 0xc0000000000f9078
