In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: mt7996: check pointer returned by mt76_connac_get_he_phy_cap()
mt76_connac_get_he_phy_cap routine can theoretically return NULL so
check cap pointer before dereferencing it.
wifi: mt76: mt7996: check pointer returned by mt76_connac_get_he_phy_cap()
mt76_connac_get_he_phy_cap routine can theoretically return NULL so
check cap pointer before dereferencing it.
Default status is the baseline for the product, each version can override it (e.g. patched versions marked unaffected).
