"The version of kernel installed on the remote Azure Linux 3.0 host is prior to tested version. It is, therefore,
affected by a vulnerability as referenced in the CVE-2025-21951 advisory.
- In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: bus: mhi: host: pci_generic: Use
pci_try_reset_function() to avoid deadlock There are multiple places from where the recovery work gets
scheduled asynchronously. Also, there are multiple places where the caller waits synchronously for the
recovery to be completed. One such place is during the PM shutdown() callback. If the device is not alive
during recovery_work, it will try to reset the device using pci_reset_function(). This function internally
will take the device_lock() first before resetting the device. By this time, if the lock has already been
acquired, then recovery_work will get stalled while waiting for the lock. And if the lock was already
acquired by the caller which waits for the recovery_work to be completed, it will lead to deadlock. This
is what happened on the X1E80100 CRD device when the device died before shutdown() callback. Driver core
calls the driver's shutdown() callback while holding the device_lock() leading to deadlock. And this
deadlock scenario can occur on other paths as well, like during the PM suspend() callback, where the
driver core would hold the device_lock() before calling driver's suspend() callback. And if the
recovery_work was already started, it could lead to deadlock. This is also observed on the X1E80100 CRD.
So to fix both issues, use pci_try_reset_function() in recovery_work. This function first checks for the
availability of the device_lock() before trying to reset the device. If the lock is available, it will
acquire it and reset the device. Otherwise, it will return -EAGAIN. If that happens, recovery_work will
fail with the error message Recovery failed as not much could be done. (CVE-2025-21951)
Note that Nessus has not tested for this issue but has instead relied only on the application's self-reported version
number.");
