LIN1025-7537 : Security Advisory - linux - CVE-2025-71131

Created: Jan 15, 2026    Updated: Jan 20, 2026
Found In Version: 10.25.33.2
Severity: Standard
Applicable for: Wind River Linux LTS 25
Component/s: Kernel

Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

crypto: seqiv - Do not use req->iv after crypto_aead_encrypt

As soon as crypto_aead_encrypt is called, the underlying request
may be freed by an asynchronous completion.  Thus dereferencing
req->iv after it returns is invalid.

Instead of checking req->iv against info, create a new variable
unaligned_info and use it for that purpose instead.
