Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net:sfc: fix non-freed irq in legacy irq mode

SFC driver can be configured via modparam to work using MSI-X, MSI or legacy IRQ interrupts. In the last one, the interrupt was not properly released on module remove.

It was not freed because the flag irqs_hooked was not set during initialization in the case of using legacy IRQ.

Example of (trimmed) trace during module remove without this fix:

The MITRE ATT&CK techniques below are AI-generated suggestions, inferred from the description of the vulnerability by the CIRCL/vulnerability-attack-technique-classification-roberta-base model, served locally by ML-Gateway. They have not been verified by an analyst and are provided for guidance only.
The approach is described in our paper Mapping CVEs to MITRE ATT&CK Techniques: A Curated Gold-Set Classifier and the Limits of LLM-Assisted Label Expansion.
