Description SMASH SMASH 2024-03-19 07:19:34 UTC 
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: ath11k: rely on mac80211 debugfs handling for vif

mac80211 started to delete debugfs entries in certain cases, causing a
ath11k to crash when it tried to delete the entries later. Fix this by
relying on mac80211 to delete the entries when appropriate and adding
them from the vif_add_debugfs handler.

Comment 1 Carlos López 2024-03-19 07:20:06 UTC 
The bug was never introduced in SLE15-SP6, so we are not affected. Already fixed in stable.
Comment 3 Carlos López 2024-04-29 12:18:27 UTC 
Nothing to do, closing.
