CVE-2025-38532 (published 2025-08-16)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

net: libwx: properly reset Rx ring descriptor

When device reset is triggered by feature changes such as toggling Rx
VLAN offload, wx->do_reset() is called to reinitialize Rx rings. The
hardware descriptor ring may retain stale values from previous sessions.
And only set the length to 0 in rx_desc[0] would result in building
malformed SKBs. Fix it to ensure a clean slate after device reset.
