Overview

CVE-2025-38326 is a medium-severity vulnerability. It was published on July 10, 2025 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5 (MEDIUM).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 5.5, rated MEDIUM. It requires local or adjacent network access to exploit. Some level of privileges is required for exploitation.

Technical description

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

aoe: clean device rq_list in aoedev_downdev()

An aoe device's rq_list contains accepted block requests that are

waiting to be transmitted to the aoe target. This queue was added as

part of the conversion to blk_mq. However, the queue was not cleaned out

when an aoe device is downed which caused blk_mq_freeze_queue() to sleep

indefinitely waiting for those requests to complete, causing a hang. This

fix cleans out the queue before calling blk_mq_freeze_queue().

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
