Red Hat has released a security advisory for multiple vulnerabilities in the Linux kernel packages of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 10. These vulnerabilities include out-of-bounds reads, buffer overflows, use-after-free conditions, denial of service, and privilege escalation issues. The update also contains bug fixes and enhancements. A system reboot is required after applying the update. Red Hat recommends prompt installation to mitigate potential risks.

A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's iwlwifi driver for Intel Wi-Fi firmware was resolved. The flaw involved the transmission (TX) path continuing to dequeue and attempt to send frames during a firmware restart, despite the firmware being non-responsive. This caused a tight loop of failed transmissions and memory allocation churn, leading to high CPU usage and memory pressure. The issue was fixed by adding a check to stop all TX operations during firmware restart. The vulnerability affects multiple Linux kernel versions prior to 7.0.0-28.28 and specific other versions. A patch is available and should be applied to mitigate the issue.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: iwlwifi: mld: stop TX during firmware restart When iwlwifi firmware crashes (e.g., NMI_INTERRUPT_UNKNOWN on Intel BE201/Wi-Fi 7), iwl_mld_nic_error() sets mld->fw_status.in_hw_restart to true. However, iwl_mld_tx_from_txq() does not check this flag before dequeuing frames from mac80211 and pushing them to the transport layer. Since the firmware is dead, iwl_trans_tx() returns -EIO for each frame, which then gets freed immediately. Under high-throughput conditions (e.g., Tailscale UDP traffic or active SSH sessions), this creates a tight dequeue-send-fail-free loop that wastes CPU cycles and generates rapid skb allocation churn, leading to memory pressure from slab fragmentation. The RX path already has this guard (iwl_mld_rx_mpdu checks in_hw_restart at rx.c:1906), and so does the TXQ allocation worker (iwl_mld_add_txqs_wk at tx.c:156). Add the same guard to iwl_mld_tx_from_txq() to stop all TX during firmware restart. Frames left in mac80211's TXQs are naturally drained after restart completes, when queue reallocation triggers iwl_mld_tx_from_txq() via iwl_mld_add_txq_list(), or when new upper-layer traffic invokes wake_tx_queue. Tested on ASUS Zenbook 14 UX3405CA with Intel BE201 (Wi-Fi 7) on kernel 6.19.5 where the firmware crashes approximately every 10-15 minutes under Tailscale traffic.
