kernel: wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: fix 6 GHz scan construction

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's iwlwifi driver. This vulnerability can lead to a Denial of Service DoS when constructing a 6 GHz wireless scan. Due to an 8-bit loop counter, discovering more than 255 co-located access points APs causes the driver to enter an infinite loop. An attacker with...

CVE-2024-53055

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: fix 6 GHz scan construction If more than 255 colocated APs exist for the set of all APs found during 2.4/5 GHz scanning, then the 6 GHz scan construction will loop forever since the loop variable has type u8,...
