Description OSIDB Bzimport 2025-06-18 12:01:22 UTC
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: lantiq_xrx200: restore buffer if memory allocation failed

In a situation where memory allocation fails, an invalid buffer address
is stored. When this descriptor is used again, the system panics in the
build_skb() function when accessing memory.
