CVE-2025-38110 is an out-of-bounds memory-access vulnerability in the Linux kernel net/mdiobus subsystem’s Clause 45 (C45) MDIO read/write ioctl handling. The interface accepted an arbitrary MDIO address without validation, although the kernel supports 32 PHY addresses through PHY_MAX_ADDR. An address above the supported range could index the mdiobus statistics array out of bounds during a C45 read or write. The fix validates the MDIO address before performing the C45 operation.
