CVE-2025-71222 is a Linux kernel vulnerability in the wlcore Wi-Fi driver stack. The issue was fixed by the change described as "wifi: wlcore: ensure skb headroom before skb_push." According to the provided content, wl1271_tx_work could call skb_push without first ensuring that the socket buffer had sufficient headroom. In affected cases, available headroom could be smaller than required, with the example given as 110 bytes needed versus 94 bytes available, causing an skb_under_panic condition and kernel Oops. This is a memory-boundary handling flaw in packet buffer manipulation within the wlcore/wl1271 transmit path.
