In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: ath11k: free peer for station when disconnect from AP for QCA6390/WCN6855 Commit b4a0f54156ac ("ath11k: move peer delete after vdev stop of station
for QCA6390 and WCN6855") is to fix firmware crash by changing the WMI
command sequence, but actually skip all the peer delete operation, then
it lead commit 58595c9874c6 ("ath11k: Fixing dangling pointer issue upon
peer delete failure") not take effect, and then happened a use-after-free
warning from KASAN. because the peer->sta is not set to NULL and then used
