CVE-2025-21707 (published 2025-02-27)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

mptcp: consolidate suboption status

MPTCP maintains the received sub-options status is the bitmask carrying
the received suboptions and in several bitfields carrying per suboption
additional info.

Zeroing the bitmask before parsing is not enough to ensure a consistent
status, and the MPTCP code has to additionally clear some bitfiled
depending on the actually parsed suboption.

The above schema is fragile, and syzbot managed to trigger a path where
a relevant bitfield is not cleared/initialized:
