Описание
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: mt7996: check pointer returned by mt76_connac_get_he_phy_cap()
mt76_connac_get_he_phy_cap routine can theoretically return NULL so
check cap pointer before dereferencing it.
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Wi-Fi driver (mt76: mt7996). The mt76_connac_get_he_phy_cap() routine can theoretically return a null pointer, which is not properly checked before being dereferenced. This oversight could allow a local attacker to cause a denial of service (DoS) by triggering a system crash.
Отчет
This issue affects MediaTek mt7996 Wi-Fi. HE PHY capability pointer from mt76_connac_get_he_phy_cap() is not checked for NULL before dereference. Systems without mt7996 hardware are not affected.
Меры по смягчению последствий
To mitigate this issue, prevent the mt7996e module from loading. See https://access.redhat.com/solutions/41278 for instructions.
