Exploitation evidence

Disclosed: evidence found.
CVE published 8 May 2025
Detectable: no evidence on record.
No public nuclei template indexed
Weaponized: no evidence on record.
No public exploit code indexed in Metasploit or Exploit-DB
Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation
Observed by OffSeq MirageSeen by Mirage: no evidence on record.
No attack traffic recorded by OffSeq Mirage sensors

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 6 Nov 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponized: A Metasploit exploit module or Exploit-DB entry exists (Metasploit scanner modules do not count), or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

A security update is available and should be applied immediately. Users should upgrade to linux-nvidia-tegra kernel version 6.8.0-1036.39 or later. After updating, a system reboot is required to apply all changes. Due to an ABI change, all third-party kernel modules must be recompiled and reinstalled. Follow the vendor advisory at https://ubuntu.com/security/notices/USN-8886-1 for detailed instructions.

Description

Multiple security vulnerabilities were discovered in the Linux kernel for NVIDIA Tegra systems affecting a wide range of subsystems and drivers. These issues could potentially allow an attacker to compromise the system. A security update has been released to address these flaws, and users are advised to apply the update and reboot their systems. The update requires recompilation and reinstallation of third-party kernel modules due to an ABI change.

Impact

An attacker could exploit these vulnerabilities to compromise the affected system. The broad range of affected subsystems indicates potential for privilege escalation, denial of service, or other impacts depending on the specific flaw. No known exploits in the wild have been reported. The update mitigates these risks by correcting the underlying flaws.

Summary

CVE-2025-37807 encompasses numerous security issues in the Linux kernel specifically for NVIDIA Tegra platforms. The vulnerabilities affect a broad spectrum of kernel subsystems including various architectures (ARM32, ARM64, MIPS, x86, PowerPC, etc.), device drivers (GPU, Bluetooth, network, audio, USB, etc.), filesystems (BTRFS, Ceph, exFAT, NFS, NTFS3, etc.), networking components (IPv4, IPv6, TCP, SCTP, Netfilter, etc.), security modules (AppArmor, SELinux, IMA), and kernel infrastructure components (scheduler, memory management, syscalls, tracing, etc.). These flaws collectively could allow an attacker to compromise system integrity or confidentiality. The vulnerabilities have been fixed in linux-nvidia-tegra kernel version 6.8.0-1036.39.
