CVE-2025-40132: ASoC: Intel: sof_sdw: Prevent jump to NULL add_sidecar callback

Noroxi assessment

Priority: Monitor (action score 0/100)

  • The sources we track (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, Metasploit, Nuclei, GitHub) show no public exploit code or exploitation in the wild.
  • Probability of exploitation in the next 30 days: 0.21% (FIRST EPSS).
  • Fixed version: Linux Linux 87cab86925b7fa4c1c977bc191ac549a3b23f0ea, a5416c0fc9e77b69f853dfb1e78bc05a7c06a789, aea038062edfca9c6e5ddcecd4611d5a80113b4e.

Low priority for now. Upgrade to Linux Linux 87cab86925b7fa4c1c977bc191ac549a3b23f0ea, a5416c0fc9e77b69f853dfb1e78bc05a7c06a789, aea038062edfca9c6e5ddcecd4611d5a80113b4e or later.

Generated automatically from the record's data: CVSS (NVD and CNA), CISA KEV and SSVC, FIRST EPSS, exploit sources, fixed versions. How we calculate it

Primary sources: NVD · CVE.org · FIRST EPSS

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ASoC: Intel: sof_sdw: Prevent jump to NULL add_sidecar callback In create_sdw_dailink() check that sof_end->codec_info->add_sidecar is not NULL before calling it. The original code assumed that if include_sidecar is true, the codec on that link has an add_sidecar callback. But there could be other codecs on the same link that do not have an add_sidecar callback.

Exploit status

No known public exploit

No public exploit has been observed yet. That doesn't mean you're safe, only that the bar is a little higher.

Research context

For pentesters and researchers: attack profile, score disagreement, timeline, patch commits, credits, variant and chain candidates, bug bounty scope. All derived from existing data; no exploit code.

Timeline

From publication to today: proof of concept, Metasploit module, CISA KEV and fix record. Dates are as reported by the sources.

No dated events beyond publication.

No history yet (it accumulates with the daily EPSS job).

Patch and commit links

Commit, PR and diff links among the references. A starting point for patch-diffing and variant hunting; fixes, not exploits.

No commit or PR link among the references.

Credits

All researchers

Finders, reporters and analysts named in the CNA record. Click a name for that researcher’s other records.

No credits in the CNA record.

Variant candidates

Same product, same weakness class, within 18 months. If the patch missed the root cause, the sibling bug is here.

No nightly-computed relations.

Chain candidates

An authentication bypass and a privilege-requiring bug in the same product, published close together: combined they may become an unauthenticated path.

Bug bounty scope

No known public program.

Source: bounty-targets-data (public HackerOne, Bugcrowd, Intigriti, YesWeHack listings).

Technical details

No CVSS vector for this record, so attack conditions can't be derived.

Weakness class (CWE)

—

Attack context

MITRE CAPEC attack patterns and ATT&CK techniques for this weakness class (CWE). A starting point for detection rules and threat hunting.

MITRE has no CAPEC/ATT&CK mapping for this CWE.
