CVE-2024-40979 wifi: ath12k: fix kernel crash during resume

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath12k: fix kernel crash during resume Currently during resume, QMI target memory is not properly handled, resulting in kernel crash in case DMA remap is not supported: BUG: Bad page state in process kworker/u16:54 pfn:36e8...

CVE-2024-40979

CVE-2024-40979 describes a Linux kernel issue in the ath12k QMI memory handling during resume. When the module loads, firmware requests large memory segments; if DMA remap is not supported, initial allocations fail and a second attempt uses small segments that succeed. On resume, the driver again...

CVE-2024-40970

The CVE-2024-40970 entry concerns a Linux kernel vulnerability in the dw-axi-dmac component that can cause a kernel panic due to an overrun of the hw_desc array when a descriptor chain expands (example: nr_buffers=3 with 3 segments per descriptor, totaling 9). The proposed fix, as described in mu...
