| Vector | AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H |
Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions
Linux kernel versions prior to 5.10.100-fix-510-56778d365941-kasan
Description
A use-after-free issue has been identified in the Linux kernel, specifically in the mt76 module. The issue arises from the
mt76 txq schedule function accessing a pointer to wcid after it has been freed. This is caught by the KASAN (Kernel Address Sanitizer) tool. The issue is related to the protection of mtxq->wcid with rcu lock between mt76 txq schedule and sta info [alloc, free].Recommendations
For Linux kernel versions prior to 5.10.100-fix-510-56778d365941-kasan, consider applying the fix that removes the non-RCU
wcid pointer to resolve the use-after-free issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the vulnerable mt76 txq schedule function until a patch is available.Exploit
