In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
igc: set tx buffer type for SMD frames
Sashiko pointed out that igc_fpe_init_smd_frame() initializes
igc_tx_buffer fields for an SMD skb, but does not set the buffer type:
https://sashiko.dev/#/patchset/20260415025226.114115-1-kohei%40enjuk.jp
Since igc_tx_buffer entries are reused, a stale XDP or XSK type can
remain and make TX completion use the wrong cleanup path.
Set the buffer type to IGC_TX_BUFFER_TYPE_SKB.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's igc network driver. The igc_fpe_init_smd_frame() function, responsible for initializing transmit (TX) buffer fields for Stream-based Data (SMD) frames, does not correctly set the buffer type. This can result in stale XDP (eXpress Data Path) or XSK (AF_XDP socket) types persisting in reused TX buffer entries. Consequently, the system's TX completion process may follow an incorrect cleanup path, potentially leading to memory corruption or system instability.
