CVE-2026-43325 Details
Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: iwlwifi: mvm: don't send a 6E related command when not supported MCC_ALLOWED_AP_TYPE_CMD is related to 6E support. Do not send it if the device doesn't support 6E. Apparently, the firmware is mistakenly advertising support for this command even on AX201 which does not support 6E and then the firmware crashes.
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's iwlwifi driver for Intel wireless devices has been addressed. The issue arose because the driver was sending a command related to Wi-Fi 6E support to devices that do not actually support it, specifically the AX201 model. This mismatch caused the firmware to crash. The problem occurred because the firmware incorrectly advertised 6E support for the AX201 device.
Users can upgrade to the latest version of the Linux kernel, where this vulnerability has been fixed. The specific commit that addresses this issue is 323156c3541e23da7e582008a7ac30cd51b60acd.
