kernel: mt76: fix use-after-free by removing a non-RCU wcid pointer

A vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's mt76 wi-fi driver. A concurrency bug causes the mtxq TX queue to maintain a raw pointer to a wcid structure mtxq-wcid that might be freed by the time it is accessed. This issue can lead to a use-after-free scenario, leading to system instability,...

DEBIAN-CVE-2022-50177

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: rcutorture: Fix ksoftirqd boosting timing and iteration The RCU priority boosting can fail in two situations: 1 If nrcpus= maxcpus=, which means if the total number of CPUs is higher than those brought online at boot, then...

UBUNTU-CVE-2022-49934

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mac80211: Fix UAF in ieee80211scanrx ieee80211scanrx tries to access scanreq-flags after a null check, but a UAF is observed when the scan is completed and ieee80211scancompleted executes, which then calls cfg80211scandone...

UBUNTU-CVE-2025-38028

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: NFS/localio: Fix a race in nfslocalopenfh Once the clp-cluuid.lock has been dropped, another CPU could come in and free the struct nfsdfile that was just added. To prevent that from happening, take the RCU read lock before droppi...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.1

Using the bird service, these routers continuous...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability in Linux 6.12

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: net/sched: The use-of-free issue in tapriodevnotifier has been fixed. Since tapriodevnotifier is not protected by a critical section on the read side of an RCU, a race with advancesched can lead to a use-of-free error. Adding...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 6.1, Linux 6.12

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ARP: RCU protection is now used in arpxmit. The arpxmit function can be called without RTNL or RCU protection. RCU protection is used to avoid potential Use-after-Allocation UAF vulnerabilities...

Astra Linux – Vulnerability found in Linux 6.1, Linux 6.12

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerabilities have been resolved: ndisc: Extended RCU protection has been added to ndiscsendskb. The ndiscsendskb function can be called without holding RTNL or RCU. The rcureadlock function must be acquired earlier, so that we can use devnetrcu, and potential...
