Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel versions prior to 6.1.0-rc5-wt-ath-656295-gef907406320c-dirty #6

Description The Linux kernel contains a flaw within the ath11k module related to monitor mode bringup. When an interface is activated in monitor mode, a NULL pointer dereference crash can occur during packet type extraction for an SKB. This happens because the extraction is unnecessary for monitor ring packets, which are RAW packets. The issue is addressed by appending flags to skip the extraction process when handling monitor ring packets.

Recommendations Update the Linux kernel to a version newer than 6.1.0-rc5-wt-ath-656295-gef907406320c-dirty #6.
