      <title>CVE-2022-49934 — wifi: mac80211: Fix UAF in ieee80211_scan_rx()</title>
      <link>https://db.gcve.eu/vuln/cve-2022-49934</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: mac80211: Fix UAF in ieee80211_scan_rx()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;ieee80211_scan_rx() tries to access scan_req-&amp;gt;flags after a
null check, but a UAF is observed when the scan is completed
and __ieee80211_scan_completed() executes, which then calls
cfg80211_scan_done() leading to the freeing of scan_req.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Since scan_req is rcu_dereference()&amp;#39;d, prevent the racing in
__ieee80211_scan_completed() by ensuring that from mac80211&amp;#39;s
POV it is no longer accessed from an RCU read critical section
before we call cfg80211_scan_done().&lt;/p&gt;</description>
