The kernel oops below occurred due to incorrect\nerror handling flow when pci_setup_device() fails.\n\nAdd pci_iov_scan_device(), which handles virtfn allocation and setup and\ncleans up if pci_setup_device() fails, so pci_iov_add_virtfn() doesn't need\nto call pci_stop_and_remove_bus_device().  This prevents accessing\npartially initialized virtfn devices during removal.\n\n  BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 00000000000000d0\n  RIP: 0010:device_del+0x3d/0x3d0\n  Call Trace:\n   pci_remove_bus_device+0x7c/0x100\n   pci_iov_add_virtfn+0xfa/0x200\n   sriov_enable+0x208/0x420\n   mlx5_core_sriov_configure+0x6a/0x160 [mlx5_core]\n   sriov_numvfs_store+0xae/0x1a0\n\n[bhelgaas: commit log, return ERR_PTR(-ENOMEM) directly]","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H","score":5.5},"cwes":["CWE-476"],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/04d50d953ab46d96b0b32d5ad955fceaa28622db","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/c67a233834b778b8c78f8b62c072ccf87a9eb6d0","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/ef421b4d206f0d3681804b8f94f06a8458a53aaf"],"products":["linux:linux_kernel"],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:01:11.054312287+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2025-22092","score":0.00199,"percentile":0.09787,"date":"2026-11-01"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
