CVE-2025-38072

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

libnvdimm/labels: Fix divide error in ndlabeldata_init()

If a faulty CXL memory device returns a broken zero LSA size in its memory device information (Identify Memory Device (Opcode 4000h), CXL spec. 3.1, 8.2.9.9.1.1), a divide error occurs in the libnvdimm driver:

Oops: divide error: 0000 [#1] PREEMPT SMP NOPTI RIP: 0010:ndlabeldata_init+0x10e/0x800 [libnvdimm]

Code and flow:

1) CXL Command 4000h returns LSA size = 0 2) config_size is assigned to zero LSA size (CXL pmem driver):

drivers/cxl/pmem.c: .configsize = mds->lsasize,

3) max_xfer is set to zero (nvdimm driver):

drivers/nvdimm/label.c: maxxfer = mint(sizet, ndd->nsarea.maxxfer, config_size);

4) A subsequent DIVROUNDUP() causes a division by zero:

drivers/nvdimm/label.c: /* Make our initial read size a multiple of maxxfer size */ drivers/nvdimm/label.c: readsize = min(DIVROUNDUP(readsize, maxxfer) * maxxfer, drivers/nvdimm/label.c- configsize);

Fix this by checking the config size parameter by extending an existing check.
