CVE-2025-22050

Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)

Description A race condition in the Linux kernel's usbnet module can lead to a NULL pointer dereference, resulting in a Kernel Panic. This issue arises due to the lack of usbnet going away validation in the usb submit urb function, which is present in the usbnet queue skb function. The inconsistency can cause a URB request to succeed while the corresponding SKB data fails to be queued, leading to subsequent processes attempting to access skb->next and triggering a NULL pointer dereference.

Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
