      <title>CVE-2026-53258 — wifi: fix leak if split 6 GHz scanning fails</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2026-53258</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Affected:&lt;/strong&gt; Linux&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;wifi: fix leak if split 6 GHz scanning fails&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;rdev-&amp;gt;int_scan_req is leaked if cfg80211_scan() fails.  Note that it&amp;#39;s
supposed to be released at ___cfg80211_scan_done() but this doesn&amp;#39;t happen
as rdev-&amp;gt;scan_req is NULL at that point, too, leading to the early return
from the freeing function.&lt;/p&gt;
