CVE-2025-21960 (Moderate severity, published 2025-03-31)
CVSS score: 5.7 (CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CWE: CWE-675
Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

eth: bnxt: do not update checksum in bnxt_xdp_build_skb()

The bnxt_rx_pkt() updates ip_summed value at the end if checksum offload
is enabled.
When the XDP-MB program is attached and it returns XDP_PASS, the
bnxt_xdp_build_skb() is called to update skb_shared_info.
The main purpose of bnxt_xdp_build_skb() is to update skb_shared_info,
but it updates ip_summed value too if checksum offload is enabled.
This is actually duplicate work.

When the bnxt_rx_pkt() updates ip_summed value, it checks if ip_summed
is CHECKSUM_NONE or not.
It means that ip_summed should be CHECKSUM_NONE at this moment.
But ip_summed may already be updated to CHECKSUM_UNNECESSARY in the
XDP-MB-PASS path.
So the by skb_checksum_none_assert() WARNS about it.

This is duplicate work and updating ip_summed in the
bnxt_xdp_build_skb() is not needed.

Splat looks like:

Following ping.py patch adds xdp-mb-pass case. so ping.py is going
to be able to reproduce this issue.
Statement: The bug is actual only if XDP (eXpress Data Path) that is an eBPF-based high-performance network data path being used. The bug doesn't lead to kernel crash, so only about annoying warning message.
Mitigation: To mitigate this issue, prevent module bnxt_en from being loaded. Please see https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 for how to blacklist a kernel module to prevent it from loading automatically.
