Summary

In the Linux kernel's mac80211 subsystem, the ieee80211_tdls_oper() function can operate on the AP station, leading to warnings when the AP station is removed or later confused for a TDLS peer. There is no check that the station is actually a TDLS peer.

Risk Assessment

This could lead to incorrect wireless network behavior, kernel warnings, and potential crashes, which could be exploited for disruption.

Recommendation

Install a kernel patch that adds a check to ensure the station is a TDLS peer before performing TDLS operations.
