Descriptions

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

cfg80211: call cfg80211_stop_ap when switch from P2P_GO type

If the userspace tools switch from NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_GO to
NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC via send_msg(NL80211_CMD_SET_INTERFACE), it
does not call the cleanup cfg80211_stop_ap(), this leads to the
initialization of in-use data. For example, this path re-init the
sdata->assigned_chanctx_list while it is still an element of
assigned_vifs list, and makes that linked list corrupt.

En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: cfg80211: llame a cfg80211_stop_ap cuando cambie del tipo P2P_GO. Si las herramientas del espacio de usuario cambian de NL80211_IFTYPE_P2P_GO a NL80211_IFTYPE_ADHOC mediante send_msg(NL80211_CMD_SET_INTERFACE), no llama a la limpieza cfg80211_ stop_ap(), esto lleva a la inicialización de datos en uso. Por ejemplo, esta ruta reinicia sdata->assigned_chanctx_list mientras todavía es un elemento de la lista asignada_vifs y corrompe esa lista vinculada.
