CVE-2026-20465
In wlan AP driver, there is a possible out of bounds write due to a missing bounds check. This could lead to remote (proximal/adjacent) escalation of privilege with no additional execution privileges needed. User interaction is not needed for exploitation. Patch ID: WCNCR00489200; Issue ID: MSV-7834.
CVSS
- Versión: 3.1
- Vector: CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:N
