Описание
A use-after-free flaw was found in the Linux kernel’s Atheros wireless adapter driver in the way a user forces the ath9k_htc_wait_for_target function to fail with some input messages. This flaw allows a local user to crash or potentially escalate their privileges on the system.
Отчет
Keeping this issue Moderate, because the impact is limited: likely only possibility of memory leak and crash, but not privileges escalation and both kind of race condition that is hard to trigger.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, prevent the module ath9k from being loaded. Please see https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 for information on how to blacklist a kernel module to prevent it from loading automatically.
