Para solucionarlo, borre el \"trigger\" y el estado de PTM despu\u00e9s de cada transacci\u00f3n de PTM. El problema se puede reproducir con lo siguiente: $ sudo phc2sys -R 1000 -O 0 -i tsn0 -m Nota: 1000 Hz (-R 1000) es irrealmente grande, pero proporciona una forma de reproducir r\u00e1pidamente el problema. PHC2SYS termina con: \"ioctl PTP_OFFSET_PRECISE: Connection timed out\" cuando falla la transacci\u00f3n de PTM Este parche tambi\u00e9n corrige un bloqueo en igc_probe() al cargar el controlador igc en el kernel kdump en sistemas compatibles con PTM. El controlador igc que se ejecuta en el kernel base habilita el disparador de PTM en igc_probe(). Por lo tanto, el controlador siempre est\u00e1 en modo de disparo PTM, excepto durante breves periodos al activar manualmente un ciclo PTM. Si se produce un fallo, la NIC se reinicia con el disparo PTM activado. Debido a un problema de hardware, la NIC se encuentra en un estado de busmaster defectuoso y no gestiona las lecturas/escrituras de registros. Al ejecutar igc_probe() en el kernel de kdump, el primer acceso a un registro de la NIC bloquea el sondeo del controlador y, en \u00faltima instancia, interrumpe kdump. Con esta revisi\u00f3n, igc mantiene el disparo PTM desactivado la mayor parte del tiempo, y solo se activa durante periodos muy breves (10-100 us) al activar manualmente un ciclo PTM. La probabilidad de que se produzca un fallo durante un disparo PTM no es nula, sino extremadamente reducida."}], "id": "CVE-2025-37875", "lastModified": "2025-11-12T19:52:18.213", "metrics": {"cvssMetricV31": [{"cvssData": {"attackComplexity": "LOW", "attackVector": "LOCAL", "availabilityImpact": "HIGH", "baseScore": 5.5, "baseSeverity": "MEDIUM", "confidentialityImpact": "NONE", "integrityImpact": "NONE", "privilegesRequired": "LOW", "scope": "UNCHANGED", "userInteraction": "NONE", "vectorString": "CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H", "version": "3.1"}, "exploitabilityScore": 1.8, "impactScore": 3.6, "source": "[email protected]", "type": "Primary"}]}, "published": "2025-05-09T07:16:08.670", "references": [{"source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/0c03e4fbe1321697d9d04587e21e416705e1b19f"}, {"source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/16194ca3f3b4448a062650c869a7b3b206c6f5d3"}, {"source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/31959e06143692f7e02b8eef7d7d6ac645637906"}, {"source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/8e404ad95d2c10c261e2ef6992c7c12dde03df0e"}, {"source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c1f174edaccc5a00f8e218c42a0aa9156efd5f76"}, {"source": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "tags": ["Patch"], "url": "https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f3516229cd12dcd45f23ed01adab17e8772b1bd5"}, {"source": "af854a3a-2127-422b-91ae-364da2661108", "tags": ["Mailing List", "Third Party Advisory"], "url": "https://lists.debian.org/debian-lts-announce/2025/05/msg00045.html"}], "sourceIdentifier": "416baaa9-dc9f-4396-8d5f-8c081fb06d67", "vulnStatus": "Analyzed", "weaknesses": [{"description": [{"lang": "en", "value": "NVD-CWE-noinfo"}], "source": "[email protected]", "type": "Primary"}]}
