CVE-2024-57997
Estado: ModificadaMedia (5.5)—
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: wcn36xx: fix channel survey memory allocation size
KASAN reported a memory allocation issue in wcn->chan_survey due to incorrect size calculation. This commit uses kcalloc to allocate memory for wcn->chan_survey, ensuring proper initialization and preventing the use of uninitialized values when there are no frames on the channel.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H
