CVE-2025-38524 – rxrpc: Fix recv-recv race of completed call
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2025-38524
16 Aug 2025 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rxrpc: Fix recv-recv race of completed call If a call receives an event (such as incoming data), the call gets placed on the socket's queue and a thread in recvmsg can be awakened to go and process it. Once the thread has picked up the call off of the queue, further events will cause it to be requeued, and once the socket lock is dropped (recvmsg uses call->user_mutex to allow the socket to be used in parallel), a second thread can come in ... • https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/248f219cb8bcbfbd7f132752d44afa2df7c241d1 •

CVE-2025-38516 – pinctrl: qcom: msm: mark certain pins as invalid for interrupts
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2025-38516
16 Aug 2025 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: pinctrl: qcom: msm: mark certain pins as invalid for interrupts On some platforms, the UFS-reset pin has no interrupt logic in TLMM but is nevertheless registered as a GPIO in the kernel. This enables the user-space to trigger a BUG() in the pinctrl-msm driver by running, for example: `gpiomon -c 0 113` on RB2. The exact culprit is requesting pins whose intr_detection_width setting is not 1 or 2 for interrupts. This hits a BUG() in msm_gpio... • https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/f365be0925729508fd8e62f8bdb504ef896cb6e0 •

CVE-2025-38515 – drm/sched: Increment job count before swapping tail spsc queue
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2025-38515
16 Aug 2025 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: drm/sched: Increment job count before swapping tail spsc queue A small race exists between spsc_queue_push and the run-job worker, in which spsc_queue_push may return not-first while the run-job worker has already idled due to the job count being zero. If this race occurs, job scheduling stops, leading to hangs while waiting on the job’s DMA fences. Seal this race by incrementing the job count before appending to the SPSC queue. This race w... • https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/27105db6c63a571b91d01e749d026105a1e63bcf •

CVE-2025-38514 – rxrpc: Fix oops due to non-existence of prealloc backlog struct

16 Aug 2025 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rxrpc: Fix oops due to non-existence of prealloc backlog struct If an AF_RXRPC service socket is opened and bound, but calls are preallocated, then rxrpc_alloc_incoming_call() will oops because the rxrpc_backlog struct doesn't get allocated until the first preallocation is made. Fix this by returning NULL from rxrpc_alloc_incoming_call() if there is no backlog struct. This will cause the incoming call to be aborted.

CVE-2025-38512 – wifi: prevent A-MSDU attacks in mesh networks
https://notcve.org/view.php?id=CVE-2025-38512
16 Aug 2025 — In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: prevent A-MSDU attacks in mesh networks This patch is a mitigation to prevent the A-MSDU spoofing vulnerability for mesh networks. The initial update to the IEEE 802.11 standard, in response to the FragAttacks, missed this case (CVE-2025-27558). It can be considered a variant of CVE-2020-24588 but for mesh networks. This patch tries to detect if a standard MSDU was turned into an A-MSDU by an adversary. This is done by parsing a recei... • https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/e2c8a3c0388aef6bfc4aabfba07bc7dff16eea80 •
