CVE-2025-39931

crypto: af_alg - Set merge to zero early in af_alg_sendmsg

Published: 10/4/2025 Last updated: 10/4/2025 Reserved: 4/16/2025

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: crypto: af_alg - Set merge to zero early in af_alg_sendmsg If an error causes af_alg_sendmsg to abort, ctx->merge may contain a garbage value from the previous loop. This may then trigger a crash on the next entry into af_alg_sendmsg when it attempts to do a merge that can't be done. Fix this by setting ctx->merge to zero near the start of the loop.
