In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
virtio-net: fix recursived rtnl_lock() during probe()
The deadlock appears in a stack trace like:
virtnet_probe()
rtnl_lock()
virtio_config_changed_work()
netdev_notify_peers()
rtnl_lock()
It happens if the VMM sends a VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE request while the
virtio-net driver is still probing.
The config_work in probe() will get scheduled until virtnet_open() enables
the config change notification via virtio_config_driver_enable().

CVE-2025-37956 [LOW] Linux kernel (Azure) vulnerabilities
Title: Linux kernel (Azure) vulnerabilities
Summary: Several security issues were fixed in the Linux kernel.
It was discovered that improper initialization of CPU cache memory could
allow a local attacker with hypervisor access to overwrite SEV-SNP guest
memory resulting in loss of data integrity. (CVE-2024-36331)
Oleksii Oleksenko, Cedric Fournet, Jana Hofmann, Boris Köpf, Stavros Volos,
and Flavien Solt discovered that some AMD processors may allow an attacker
to infer data from previous stores, potentially resulting in the leakage of
privileged information. A local attacker could possibly use this to expose
sensitive information. (CVE-2024-36350, CVE-2024-36357)

The deadlock appears in a stack trace like:

It happens if the VMM sends a VIRTIO_NET_S_ANNOUNCE request while the

The config_work in probe() will get scheduled until virtnet_open() enables
the config change notification via virtio_config_driver_enable().
