In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: fix invalid drv_sta_pre_rcu_remove calls for non-uploaded sta
Avoid potential data corruption issues caused by uninitialized driver
private data structures.
A data corruption issues was observed due to an uninitialized driver private data structures in the Linux kernel's wifi mac80211 subsystem. This could allow a local attacker to crash the system or leak kernel internal information.
Mitigation: Mitigation for this issue is either not available or the currently available options don't meet the Red Hat Product Security criteria comprising ease of use and deployment, applicability to widespread installation base or stabi
