CVE-2026-68472

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's cfg80211 Wi-Fi subsystem. A remote attacker, by operating a malicious Access Point AP, could send a specially crafted EHT Multi-Link Element MLE in an MBSSID beacon. This could cause the kernel to read beyond the intended memory boundary when processing the...

CVE-2026-68406

A flaw was found in the cfg80211 component of the Linux kernel's Wi-Fi subsystem. This vulnerability allows the PMSR FTM request parser to accept preamble values outside the defined nl80211 range. An attacker could exploit this by providing malformed input, potentially leading to unexpected syste...

CVE-2026-68404

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's cfg80211 wireless subsystem. This vulnerability involves a race condition during the process of disconnecting a wireless device, where a work item can be improperly queued after it has been cancelled. This could allow a local attacker to trigger a system...

CVE-2026-68412

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Wi-Fi subsystem, specifically within the cfg80211 component. This vulnerability, located in the cfg80211wextsiwscan function, can lead to a memory leak. A local attacker could exploit this by sending a crafted Wi-Fi scan request with an Extended Service Set...

CVE-2026-68402

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's Wi-Fi subsystem cfg80211. The cfg80211iselementinherited function does not properly validate the length of extension elements. A remote attacker, by sending a specially crafted Wi-Fi frame from an Access Point AP, could trigger a one-octet slab-out-of-bounds...

CVE-2026-68414

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's cfg80211 Wi-Fi subsystem. When a Wi-Fi device is unregistered, the system fails to properly cancel pending scheduled scan results work. This can lead to a use-after-free vulnerability, where the system attempts to access memory that has already been released...

CVE-2026-68408

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's wifi: cfg80211 component.
