CVE-2023-52525 is a high-severity vulnerability rated 7.1/10 on the CVSS scale. In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mwifiex: Fix oob check condition in mwifiex_process_rx_packet Only skip the code path trying to access the rfc1042 headers when the buffer is too small, so the driver can still process packets without rfc1042 headers.. EPSS estimates a 0.24% chance of exploitation in the next 30 days.
