CVE-2025-38462 Information

Description

In the Linux kernel the following vulnerability has been resolved:

vsock: Fix transport_g2hh2g TOCTOU

vsock_find_cid() and vsock_dev_do_ioctl() may race with module unload. transport_g2hh2g may become NULL after the NULL check.

Introduce vsock_transport_local_cid() to protect from a potential null-ptr-deref.
