Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Intel PROSet/Wireless and Intel Killer Wi-Fi software versions prior to 22.240

Description The issue is related to insufficient adherence to expected conventions in some Intel PROSet/Wireless and Intel Killer Wi-Fi software, which may allow an unauthenticated user to potentially enable denial of service via adjacent access. This is also associated with incorrect clearance or release of resources, potentially allowing a remote attacker to cause a denial of service.
