About this tag
CVE-2025-22045 is a Linux kernel vulnerability in the x86 memory management code, specifically affecting how flush_tlb_range() handles PMD entries during page table operations. The bug was fixed upstream by aligning x86 behavior with the arm64 model to prevent incorrect last-level TLB invalidation optimizations. Microsoft's MSRC confirmed that Azure Linux includes the affected open-source library and is potentially vulnerable.

Users should monitor official advisories and apply kernel updates as they become available.
