What to Know

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

wifi: rtw89: pci: validate release report content before using for RTL8922DE

The commit 957eda596c76

("wifi: rtw89: pci: validate sequence number of TX release report")

does validation on existing chips, which somehow a release report of SKB

becomes malformed. As no clear cause found, add rules ahead for RTL8922DE

to avoid crash if it happens. (NVD)

What to Do

Monitor Linux's web page for any future patch releases.
