However, drv_data allocation and workqueue allocation can fail before intf_work, autowakeup_work, [truncated]
A memory leak vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's mac80211 subsystem. The issue occurs when the `kmemdup` function fails while copying supported band structures in the `ieee80211_register_hw` function. This leads to a memory leak of the initialized `local->rate_ctrl` if the error path jumps to `fail_rate` without calling `rate_control_deinitialize`. The bug was first flagged by an experimental a [truncated]
A heap overflow vulnerability was found in the Linux kernel's brcmfmac driver. The brcmf_notify_auth_frame_rx function does not properly validate the length of authentication frames received from the firmware, leading to a potential heap overflow when copying the frame body. This issue can be triggered remotely by a malicious or malfunctioning AP during the external SAE auth exchange. Linux kernel develop [truncated]
The Linux kernel vulnerability (CVE-2026-68479) affects Bluetooth setup, allowing a malformed firmware patch to cause an oversized read and write. This issue can be mitigated by validating patch length and range without arithmetic overflow before allocating or copying the patch. Linux kernel maintainers, users, and administrators should prioritize patching to prevent potential Bluetooth setup issues. A co [truncated]
A Linux kernel vulnerability was resolved in the memstick driver ms_block, which previously accepted cards reporting too many blocks, potentially leading to a buffer overflow.
