CVE-2026-98338

Estado: RecibidaSin puntuar—

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: cfg80211: ibss: ref BSS entry for joined event

When the IBSS is joined, we only record the BSSID/channel in the event and look up the BSS entry when processing it. However, that's racy, e.g. a new scan with NL80211_SCAN_FLAG_FLUSH can remove it, causing a warning in the event work:

Do the lookup early (the driver is expected to only join an IBSS that has a BSS entry) and keep a reference to it.
