CVE-2025-37746 is a medium-severity vulnerability in Linux Linux Kernel with a CVSS 3.x base score of 5.5. It is not currently listed as actively exploited by CISA, and its EPSS exploit-prediction score is low. The underlying weakness is classified as CWE-704.

Key facts

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: perf/dwc_pcie: fix duplicate pci_dev devices During platform_device_register, wrongly using struct device pci_dev as platform_data caused a kmemdup copy of pci_dev. Worse still, accessing the duplicated device leads to list corruption as its mutex content (e.g., list, magic) remains the same as the original.
