CWE ID 476
Summary
CVE-2025-37860 is a vulnerability affecting the Linux kernel that has been addressed. The issue lies in the sfc subsystem, specifically in the function ef100_process_design_param(). Before the net device is created, ef100_probe_main() and consequently ef100_check_design_params() are executed. This sequence results in NULL dereferences in ef100_process_design_param(). To mitigate this, the netif calls have been moved to ef100_probe_netdev() and netif_err has been replaced with pci_err within the design params code.
