In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath11k: Add missing hw_ops->get_ring_selector() for IPQ5018
During sending data after clients connected, hw_ops->get_ring_selector()
will be called. But for IPQ5018, this member isn't set, and the
following NULL pointer exception will be occurred:

[ 39.625869] ---[ end trace 8aef983ad3cbc032 ]---
A flaw was discovered in the ath11k wireless driver in the Linux kernel where the hardware operations structure for the IPQ5018 platform did not include a hw_ops->get_ring_selector callback. When network traffic is being sent after clients have connected, this missing function pointer may be dereferenced, causing a NULL pointer exception and a kernel backtrace or crash.
Меры по смягчению последствий
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 stability.
