{"id":"CVE-2025-37981","summary":"scsi: smartpqi: Use is_kdump_kernel() to check for kdump","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nscsi: smartpqi: Use is_kdump_kernel() to check for kdump\n\nThe smartpqi driver checks the reset_devices variable to determine\nwhether special adjustments need to be made for kdump. This has the\neffect that after a regular kexec reboot, some driver parameters such as\nmax_transfer_size are much lower than usual. More importantly, kexec\nreboot tests have revealed memory corruption caused by the driver log\nbeing written to system memory after a kexec.\n\nFix this by testing is_kdump_kernel() rather than reset_devices where\nappropriate.","modified":"2026-04-02T12:47:42.930924Z","published":"2025-05-20T16:58:23.299Z","related":["SUSE-SU-2025:02254-1","SUSE-SU-2025:02307-1","SUSE-SU-2025:02333-1"],"database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"Linux","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2025/37xxx/CVE-2025-37981.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7cc670e8ebaa5241dd99c0ad75eceb8f8f64f607"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a2d5a0072235a69749ceb04c1a26dc75df66a31a"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ebf673c76ce91e612a882dfaa9a3824962994aae"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2025/37xxx/CVE-2025-37981.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2025-37981"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"058311b72f54890de824b063feb603942269b732"},{"fixed":"7cc670e8ebaa5241dd99c0ad75eceb8f8f64f607"},{"fixed":"ebf673c76ce91e612a882dfaa9a3824962994aae"},{"fixed":"a2d5a0072235a69749ceb04c1a26dc75df66a31a"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2025-37981.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.7.5"}
