CVE-2026-72017NVD

Vulnerability Summary

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

net: macb: drop in-flight Tx SKBs on close

The MACB driver has since forever leaked the outgoing SKBs that
have not yet been marked as completed. They live in queue->tx_skb
which gets freed without remorse nor checking.

macb_free_consistent() gets called in a few codepaths, but only close will
trigger the added expressions. In macb_open() and macb_alloc_consistent()
failure cases, queues' tx_skb just got allocated and are empty.
