CVE-2025-38272 (opens in a new tab)Amendment
The Minimos security team deemed this advisory irrelevant for Minimos:latest.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream linux-virt package and not the linux-virt package as distributed by Minimos.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
net: dsa: b53: do not enable EEE on bcm63xx
BCM63xx internal switches do not support EEE, but provide multiple RGMII ports where external PHYs may be connected. If one of these PHYs are EEE capable, we may try to enable EEE for the MACs, which then hangs the system on access of the (non-existent) EEE registers.
Fix this by checking if the switch actually supports EEE before attempting to configure it.
