MinimOS vulnerability analysis and mitigation
Overview
CVE-2025-37977 affects the Linux kernel and was disclosed on May 20, 2025. The vulnerability is related to the SCSI UFS driver for Exynos devices, specifically concerning the handling of DMA coherency properties (NVD).
Technical details
The vulnerability occurs when the dma-coherent property isn't set in the SCSI UFS driver for Exynos devices. In this case, descriptors are non-cacheable, but the IOCC shareability bits may remain enabled. This misconfiguration can lead to incompatible cache configurations and stability issues (NVD).
Impact
When exploited, this vulnerability can result in random cache-related stability issues in the UFS (Universal Flash Storage) system, potentially affecting system reliability and performance (NVD).
Mitigation and workarounds
The vulnerability has been patched in the Linux kernel. The fix involves properly disabling the IOCC shareability bits when the dma-coherent property isn't set (NVD).
