Summary
CVE-2025-38656 affecting package kernel 6.6.126.1-1
Details

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

wifi: iwlwifi: Fix error code in iwlopmodedvmstart()

Preserve the error code if iwlsetupdeferredwork() fails. The current code returns ERRPTR(0) (which is NULL) on this path. I believe the missing error code potentially leads to a use after free involving debugfs.
