CVE-2026-31394

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: mac80211: fix crash in ieee80211_chan_bw_change for AP_VLAN stations ieee80211_chan_bw_change() iterates all stations and accesses link->reserved.oper via sta->sdata->link[link_id]. For stations on AP_VLAN interfaces (e.g. 4addr WDS clients), sta->sdata points to the VLAN sdata, whose link never participates in chanctx reservations. This leaves link->reserved.oper zero-initialized with chan == NULL, causing a NULL pointer dereference in __ieee80211_sta_cap_rx_bw() when accessing chandef->chan->band during CSA. Resolve the VLAN sdata to its parent AP sdata using get_bss_sdata() before accessing link data. [also change sta->sdata in ARRAY_SIZE even if it doesn't matter]

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, la siguiente vulnerabilidad ha sido resuelta: mac80211: corrección de un fallo en ieee80211_chan_bw_change para estaciones AP_VLAN ieee80211_chan_bw_change() itera sobre todas las estaciones y accede a link -> reserved.oper a través de sta -> sdata -> link[link_id]. Para estaciones en interfaces AP_VLAN (p. ej., clientes WDS de 4 direcciones), sta -> sdata apunta al sdata de la VLAN, cuyo enlace nunca participa en las reservas de chanctx. Esto deja link -> reserved.oper inicializado a cero con chan == NULL, causando una desreferencia de puntero NULL en __ieee80211_sta_cap_rx_bw() al acceder a chandef -> chan -> band durante CSA. Resuelve el sdata de la VLAN a su sdata AP padre usando get_bss_sdata() antes de acceder a los datos del enlace. [también cambia sta -> sdata en ARRAY_SIZE incluso si no importa]
