CVE-2024-56543
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath12k: Skip Rx TID cleanup for self peer During peer create, dp setup for the peer is done where Rx TID is updated for all the TIDs.
Does this matter?
Lower severity and a low EPSS score (0.21%). Track it; it rarely justifies an emergency change on its own.
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath12k: Skip Rx TID cleanup for self peer During peer create, dp setup for the peer is done where Rx TID is updated for all the TIDs. Peer object for self peer will not go through dp setup. When core halts, dp cleanup is done for all the peers. While cleanup, rx_tid::ab is accessed which causes below stack trace for self peer.
