      <title>CVE-2025-39763 — ACPI: APEI: send SIGBUS to current task if synchronous memory error not recovered</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2025-39763</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;ACPI: APEI: send SIGBUS to current task if synchronous memory error not recovered&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If a synchronous error is detected as a result of user-space process
triggering a 2-bit uncorrected error, the CPU will take a synchronous
error exception such as Synchronous External Abort (SEA) on Arm64. The
kernel will queue a memory_failure() work which poisons the related
page, unmaps the page, and then sends a SIGBUS to the process, so that
a system wide panic can be avoided.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;However, no memory_failure() work will be queued when abnormal
synchronous errors occur. These errors can include situations like
invalid PA, unexpected severity, no memory failure config support,
invalid GUID section, etc. In such a case, the user-space process will
trigger SEA again.  This loop can potentially exceed the platform
firmware threshold or even trigger a kernel hard lockup, leading to a
system reboot.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Fix it by performing a force kill if no memory_failure() work is queued
for synchronous errors.&lt;/p&gt;
