In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: rtw89: pci: validate sequence number of TX release report
Hardware rarely reports abnormal sequence number in TX release report,
which will access out-of-bounds of wd_ring->pages array, causing NULL
pointer dereference.
BUG: kernel NULL pointer dereference, address: 0000000000000000
#PF: supervisor read access in kernel mode
#PF: error_code(0x0000) - not-present page
