CVE-2026-64175 wifi: iwlwifi: mld: stop TX during firmware restart

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: iwlwifi: mld: stop TX during firmware restart When iwlwifi firmware crashes e.g., NMIINTERRUPTUNKNOWN on Intel BE201/Wi-Fi 7, iwlmldnicerror sets mld-fwstatus.inhwrestart to true. However, iwlmldtxfromtxq does not check thi...

CVE-2026-64175

CVE-2026-64175 concerns the Linux kernel’s iwlwifi/iwl_mld stack. When the Intel BE201 Wi‑Fi 7 firmware restarts after a crash, the TX path lacked a guard like the RX path, so iwl_mld_tx_from_txq() could dequeue and push frames to the transport layer while the firmware was dead. This caused iwl_t...
