Summary

In the Linux kernel's ath12k Wi-Fi driver, the ath12k_dp_rx_peer_frag_setup() function fails to decrement the TID counter before cleanup on error, potentially causing an out-of-bounds access in peer->rx_tid[].

Risk Assessment

A local attacker can trigger a kernel panic by manipulating Wi-Fi connections, leading to a denial of service (DoS).

Recommendation

Apply the Linux kernel patch that decrements TID before cleanup in ath12k_dp_rx_peer_frag_setup().

Original NVD description (English source)

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath12k: Decrement TID on RX peer frag setup error handling Currently, TID is not decremented before peer cleanup, during error handling path of ath12k_dp_rx_peer_frag_setup(). This could lead to out-of-bounds access in peer->rx_tid[]. Hence, add a decrement operation for TID, before peer cleanup to ensures proper cleanup and prevents out-of-bounds access issues when the RX peer frag setup fails. Found during code review. Compile tested only.
