About this tag
CVE-2025-68258 is a vulnerability in the Linux kernel's COMEDI subsystem, specifically in the multiq3 driver. The issue involves an input-sanitization bug that can cause user tasks to hang and block devices when crafted configuration options are passed to the multiq3_attach routine. The vulnerability was discovered by Syzbot, and maintainers have patched the kernel to limit encoder counts in multiq3_attach and prevent prolonged multiq3_encoder_reset loops. This tag covers discussions and updates related to CVE-2025-68258, including the patch and its impact on Linux systems.
