CVE-2025-37761 — drm/xe: Fix an out-of-bounds shift when invalidating TLB

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/xe: Fix an out-of-bounds shift when invalidating TLB When the size of the range invalidated is larger than rounddown_pow_of_two(ULONG_MAX), The function macro roundup_pow_of_two(length) will hit an out-of-bounds shift [1]. Use a full TLB invalidation for such cases. v2: - Use a define for the range size limit over which we use a full TLB invalidation. (Lucas) - Use a better calculation of the limit.

Who exploits it and how urgent it is

A 0–100 score combining confirmed exploitation, ransomware and APT use, public exploits, EPSS and severity.

No exploitation signal in the sources consulted so far.
How the score was calculated
  • EPSS 0.2% (30-day exploitation probability)+2
  • Technical severity (high)+6

The score orders the patch queue; it does not replace your asset context (internet exposure, criticality, compensating controls).

Triage

Is it exploited, how likely is exploitation, what does it touch, and how severe do the sources call it.

First 24 hours

Ordered from the record’s own fields — exposure first, because you cannot patch what you have not found. A rule-generated starting point.

  1. Identify exposed assets running the affected vendor/product/version combinations (Linux Linux, Linux Linux Kernel).
  2. Apply the fixed version or the patch documented under Remediation.
  3. Search available logs for exploit probes matching the vulnerability class (memory corruption), errors and authentication anomalies.

What should defenders know first?

CVE-2025-37761 is "drm/xe: Fix an out-of-bounds shift when invalidating TLB", rated High. It affects Linux (Linux); versions are in the scope table. It is not in CISA KEV, which does not rule out exploitation. CVSS 7.1 describes technical severity. EPSS 0.21% estimates the probability of exploitation in 30 days; neither replaces your asset context. First verify whether exposed or business-critical assets run the affected versions, apply vendor fixes or mitigations, and preserve logs for review.
