      <title>CVE-2025-38637 — net_sched: skbprio: Remove overly strict queue assertions</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2025-38637</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;net_sched: skbprio: Remove overly strict queue assertions&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the current implementation, skbprio enqueue/dequeue contains an assertion
that fails under certain conditions when SKBPRIO is used as a child qdisc under
TBF with specific parameters. The failure occurs because TBF sometimes peeks at
packets in the child qdisc without actually dequeuing them when tokens are
unavailable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This peek operation creates a discrepancy between the parent and child qdisc
queue length counters. When TBF later receives a high-priority packet,
SKBPRIO&amp;#39;s queue length may show a different value than what&amp;#39;s reflected in its
internal priority queue tracking, triggering the assertion.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The fix removes this overly strict assertions in SKBPRIO, they are not
necessary at all.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
