Answer in brief
CVE-2025-40133 records a Unknown severity vulnerability in mptcp: Use __sk_dst_get() and dst_dev_rcu() in mptcp_active_enable().. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. The current feed maps Linux/Linux (generic), Linux/Linux (generic). Check affected ranges and fixed versions before updating.
Analysis pending evidence review
HOL Guard separates source facts from reviewed analysis. See the methodology.
A CVSS score is not reported in the current record. The current sources do not mark it as known exploited. Treat this as a source-backed prioritization signal, not a statement about your environment.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mptcp: Use __sk_dst_get() and dst_dev_rcu() in mptcp_active_enable(). mptcp_active_enable() is called from subflow_finish_connect(), which is icsk->icsk_af_ops->sk_rx_dst_set() and it's not always under RCU. Using sk_dst_get(sk)->dev could trigger UAF. Let's use __sk_dst_get() and dst_dev_rcu().
