Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: cfg80211: clear wdev->cqm_config pointer on free When we free wdev->cqm_config when unregistering, we also need to clear out the pointer since the same wdev/netdev may get re-registered in another network namespace, then destroyed later, running this code again, which results in a double-free.

Affected configurations

• linux linux kernel (>= 6.1.57 < 6.1.116) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.5.7 < 6.6) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.6 < 6.6.60) • linux linux kernel (>= 6.7 < 6.11.7) • linux linux kernel 6.12
