CVE-2025-68349 remediation guide

Linux Linux, SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU 1518-4 PN/DP MFP, SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU 1518F-4 PN/DP MFP

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: NFSv4/pNFS: Clear NFS_INO_LAYOUTCOMMIT in pnfs_mark_layout_stateid_invalid Fixes a crash when layout is null during this call stack: write_inode -> nfs4_write_inode -> pnfs_layoutcommit_inode pnfs_set_layoutcommit relies on the lseg refcount to keep the layout around. Need to clear NFS_INO_LAYOUTCOMMIT otherwise we might attempt to reference a null layout.

Identify the affected asset

Confirm whether Linux Linux, SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU 1518-4 PN/DP MFP, SIMATIC S7-1500 CPU 1518F-4 PN/DP MFP 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: >= fe1cf9469d7bcb6af27e42eb555a41b0135bce4a < 084bebe82ad86f718a3af84f34761863e63164ed, >= fe1cf9469d7bcb6af27e42eb555a41b0135bce4a < b6e4e3a08c03200cc4b8067ec8ab3172a989d6fc, >= fe1cf9469d7bcb6af27e42eb555a41b0135bce4a < 104080582ae0aa6dce6c6d75ff89062efe84673b, >= fe1cf9469d7bcb6af27e42eb555a41b0135bce4a < f718f9ea6094843b8c059b073af49ad61e9f49bb, >= fe1cf9469d7bcb6af27e42eb555a41b0135bce4a < 59947dff0fb7c19c09ce6dccbcd253fd542b6c25, >= fe1cf9469d7bcb6af27e42eb555a41b0135bce4a < ca2e7fdad7c683b64821c94a58b9b68733214dad, >= fe1cf9469d7bcb6af27e42eb555a41b0135bce4a < 38694f9aae00459ab443a7dc8b3949a6b33b560a, >= fe1cf9469d7bcb6af27e42eb555a41b0135bce4a < e0f8058f2cb56de0b7572f51cd563ca5debce746, >= 4.10, >= V3.1.6. 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: No verified fixed-version field is available yet. 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.
