Overview

CVE-2024-58239 is a high-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 22, 2025 and has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.2 (HIGH).

This vulnerability has a CVSS 3.1 base score of 8.2, rated HIGH. It can be exploited remotely over the network. No authentication or special privileges are required for exploitation.

Technical description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

tls: stop recv() if initial process_rx_list gave us non-DATA

If we have a non-DATA record on the rx_list and another record of the

same type still on the queue, we will end up merging them:

- process_rx_list copies the non-DATA record

- we start the loop and process the first available record since it's

of the same type

- we break out of the loop since the record was not DATA

Just check the record type and jump to the end in case process_rx_list

did some work.

Remediation

Check the references section for vendor advisories, patches, and mitigation guidance. If immediate patching is not possible, review the CVSS vector to understand the attack surface and apply compensating controls such as network segmentation or access restrictions.
