In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
remoteproc: qcom: pas: Shutdown lite ADSP DTB on X1E
The ADSP firmware on X1E has separate firmware binaries for the main
firmware and the DTB. The same applies for the "lite" firmware loaded by
the boot firmware.
When preparing to load the new ADSP firmware we shutdown the lite_pas_id
for the main firmware, but we don't shutdown the corresponding lite pas_id
for the DTB. The fact that we're leaving it "running" forever becomes
obvious if you try to reuse (or just access) the memory region used by the
"lite" firmware: The &adsp_boot_mem is accessible, but accessing the
&adsp_boot_dtb_mem results in a crash.
We don't support reusing the memory regions currently, but nevertheless we
should not keep part of the lite firmware running. Fix this by adding the
lite_dtb_pas_id and shutting it down as well.
We don't have a way to detect if the lite firmware is actually running yet,
so ignore the return status of qcom_scm_pas_shutdown() for now. This was
already the case before, the assignment to "ret" is not used anywhere.

Kodem intelligence
Severity tells you how bad this could be in the worst case. It does not tell you whether you are exposed. Exploitability and impact are functions of runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A vulnerable package can sit in your dependency tree and never run.
Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter. Kodem's runtime-powered SCA identifies whether this CVE is reachable in your applications.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is CVE-2025-40113? CVE-2025-40113 is a unknown-severity security vulnerability. No fixed version is listed yet.
- Is there a fix for CVE-2025-40113? No fixed version is listed for CVE-2025-40113 yet. Monitor the advisory for updates and apply mitigations in the interim.
- Is CVE-2025-40113 exploitable, and should I be worried? Whether CVE-2025-40113 is exploitable in your environment depends on whether the vulnerable code is present and reachable. A CVSS score is a worst-case rating; it does not account for your specific deployment, configuration, or usage patterns. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to show which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so you can focus on the ones that represent real risk.

- What actually determines whether CVE-2025-40113 is exploitable, and how bad it is? Exploitability and impact are not fixed properties of a CVE. They depend on runtime truth: whether the vulnerable code is present, reachable, and actually executes in your application. A high CVSS score on a dependency that never runs is not the same as real risk. Kodem, an Intelligent Application Security platform, uses runtime intelligence to reveal which vulnerabilities actually execute in production, so teams prioritize the ones that genuinely matter.
