Jul 30 RESCORED — CVE-2025-38197 (Linux). CVSS 7.3 → 5.5 (NVD).
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
platform/x86: dell_rbu: Fix list usage
Pass the correct list head to list_for_each_entry*() when looping through
the packet list.
Without this patch, reading the packet data via sysfs will show the data
incorrectly (because it starts at the wrong packet), and clearing the
packet list will result in a NULL pointer dereference.
