      "value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nwifi: mt76: mt7925: ensure tx headroom in usb_sdio_tx_prepare_skb\n\nmt7925_usb_sdio_tx_prepare_skb() pushes a TX descriptor and a USB\nheader onto every skb and assumes the headroom for them is already\nthere. That holds for locally generated traffic, where mac80211\nreserves hw->extra_tx_headroom, but forwarded frames are sent through\nieee80211_8023_xmit(), which does not reserve it. Bridge a wired\ninterface to an mt7925u AP and the first forwarded frame that arrives\nshort panics the kernel:\n\n skbuff: skb_under_panic: len:415 put:4 tail:0x19b end:0x640 dev:wlan1\n kernel BUG at net/core/skbuff.c:212!\n Call trace:\n  skb_panic+0x58/0x60 (P)\n  skb_push+0x58/0x60\n  mt7925_usb_sdio_tx_prepare_skb+0xf8/0x1b8 [mt7925_common]\n  mt76u_tx_queue_skb+0xa0/0x1f8 [mt76_usb]\n  __mt76_tx_queue_skb+0x54/0xe8 [mt76]\n  mt76_txq_schedule.part.0+0x204/0x478 [mt76]\n  mt76_txq_schedule_all+0x50/0x80 [mt76]\n  mt792x_tx_worker+0x68/0x100 [mt792x_lib]\n  __mt76_worker_fn+0x84/0x150 [mt76]\n\nWhether a given setup hits it depends on how much headroom the ingress\nnetdev leaves in its rx skbs. Reproduced on a Raspberry Pi 5 bridging\nonboard ethernet to a Netgear A9000; originally reported on an MT7986\nrouter running OpenWrt. Nick Morrow's testing on a Pi 4 (bcmgenet),\nwhich leaves more headroom, helped narrow the trigger to the ingress\npath.\n\nThe same bug was fixed on mt7921 by commit 98c4d0abf5c4 (\"mt76:\nmt7921: don't assume adequate headroom for SDIO headers\"), but mt7925\nwas copied from mt7921 without the fix. Add the same guard here."
