CVE-2025-39790 remediation guide

Linux Linux, SIMATIC CN 4100, linux kernel

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bus: mhi: host: Detect events pointing to unexpected TREs When a remote device sends a completion event to the host, it contains a pointer to the consumed TRE. The host uses this pointer to process all of the TREs between it and the host's local copy of the ring's read pointer. This works when processing completion for chained transactions, but can lead to nasty results if the device sends an event for a single-element transaction with a read pointer that is multiple elements ahead of the host's read pointer. For instance,...

Identify the affected asset

Confirm whether Linux Linux, SIMATIC CN 4100, linux kernel is installed, record the deployed version and installation path, and identify exposed interfaces.

Record the product name, package or appliance identifier, and installed version.
Identify internet-facing, administrative, API, and internal access paths.
Preserve the pre-change configuration and relevant service logs.

Validate the affected-version match

Compare the deployed version with the affected range: >= 1d3173a3bae7039b765a0956e3e4bf846dbaacb8 < 7b3f0e3b60c27f4fcb69927d84987e5fd6240530, >= 1d3173a3bae7039b765a0956e3e4bf846dbaacb8 < 4079c6c59705b96285219b9efc63cab870d757b7, >= 1d3173a3bae7039b765a0956e3e4bf846dbaacb8 < 5e17429679a8545afe438ce7a82a13a54e8ceabb, >= 1d3173a3bae7039b765a0956e3e4bf846dbaacb8 < 2ec99b922f4661521927eeada76f431eebfbabc4, >= 1d3173a3bae7039b765a0956e3e4bf846dbaacb8 < 44e1a079e18f78d6594a715b0c6d7e18c656f7b9, >= 1d3173a3bae7039b765a0956e3e4bf846dbaacb8 < 5bd398e20f0833ae8a1267d4f343591a2dd20185, >= 5.7, < V5.0, >= 5.7 < 5.15.190, >= 5.16 < 6.1.149, >= 6.2 < 6.6.103, >= 6.7 < 6.12.44, >= 6.13 < 6.16.4, 11.0. Treat incomplete inventory results as unresolved.

Prioritize with independent signals

The CVSS severity warrants an early asset and exposure review. Combine this signal with asset criticality, exposure, compensating controls, and business impact.

Apply supported remediation

Follow the vendor advisory or supported update path. Current fixed-version status: 5.15.190, 6.1.149, 6.6.103, 6.12.44, 6.16.4. Preserve configuration and rollback material before change.

Verify the result

Confirm the resulting version, service health, authentication and access paths, monitoring coverage, and relevant security logs.

Confirm the expected version and package state.
Run a functional health check for critical service paths.
Review authentication, error, application, and security monitoring logs.
Reassess exposure if the supported fix cannot be applied.

Operational boundary

This page does not replace the vendor advisory, support contract, change-management process, or recovery plan. Do not infer that an asset is unaffected from an incomplete inventory query or a missing fixed-version field.
