Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: clean up ROC on failure
If the firmware fails to start the session protection, then we
do call iwl_mvm_roc_finished() here, but that won't do anything
at all because IWL_MVM_STATUS_ROC_P2P_RUNNING was never set.
Set IWL_MVM_STATUS_ROC_P2P_RUNNING in the failure/stop path.
If it started successfully before, it's already set, so that
doesn't matter, and if it didn't start it needs to be set to
clean up.
Not doing so will lead to a WARN_ON() later on a fresh remain-
on-channel, since the link is already active when activated as
it was never deactivated.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Intel Wi-Fi driver (iwlwifi). A local user can cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by triggering wireless operations that encounter a firmware failure during session protection. Because the driver does not properly record state during this failure, remain-on-channel (ROC) session cleanup is skipped, leaving the link in an active state. Subsequent channel activation attempts encounter this uncleared state, triggering kernel warnings and disrupting wireless connectivity.
Отчет
This vulnerability is rated as Low severity because exploitation requires local access, is restricted to systems equipped with Intel wireless adapters, and only causes a kernel warning and temporary loss of Wi-Fi connectivity rather than system compromise. Enterprise server deployments typically do not utilize Wi-Fi interfaces or load the relevant wireless drivers, significantly limiting exposure in standard environments. Under affected configurations, the flaw manifests only when session protection encounters an internal firmware error, preventing wider system disruption.
