CVE-2023-54052 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mt76: mt7921: fix skb leak by txs missing in AMSDU txs may be dropped if the frame is aggregated in AMSDU. When the problem shows up, some SKBs would be hold in driver to cause network stopped temporarily. Even if the problem can be recovered by txs timeout handling, mt7921 still need to disable txs in AMSDU to avoid this issue.
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's Wi-Fi driver for MediaTek MT76 MT7921 has been addressed. The issue involved a transmission (TX) status leak caused by missing acknowledgments for frames aggregated in A-MSDU. This omission could lead to some socket buffer (SKB) structures being retained in the driver, temporarily halting network activity. Although the problem could be mitigated by handling TX timeouts, the driver needed to be updated to disable TX status in A-MSDU to prevent the issue from recurring.
Users can apply the latest patch available in the Linux kernel stable tree to address this vulnerability.
