  3. CVE-2024-42125
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: rtw89: fw: scan offload prohibit all 6 GHz channel if no 6 GHz sband We have some policy via BIOS to block uses of 6 GHz. In this case, 6 GHz sband will be NULL even if it is WiFi 7 chip. So, add NULL handling here to avoid crash.

Summary
  • (es) En el kernel de Linux, se ha resuelto la siguiente vulnerabilidad: wifi: rtw89: fw: la descarga de escaneo prohíbe todos los canales de 6 GHz si no hay una banda de 6 GHz. Tenemos alguna política a través de BIOS para bloquear los usos de 6 GHz. En este caso, la banda de 6 GHz será NULL incluso si se trata de un chip WiFi 7. Por lo tanto, agregue manejo NULL aquí para evitar fallos.
