Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: mac80211: fix NULL dereference at band check in starting tx ba session In MLD connection, link_data/link_conf are dynamically allocated. They don't point to vif->bss_conf. So, there will be no chanreq assigned to vif->bss_conf and then the chan will be NULL. Tweak the code to check ht_supported/vht_supported/has_he/has_eht on sta deflink.

Drag nodes to arrange them. Double-click a related vulnerability to open it, or a source to visit its link. The Physics button on the left tunes the layout and the simulation; the legend at the bottom left hides or shows nodes by kind and by sighting type.

Forecast uses a logistic model when the trend is rising, or an exponential decay model when the trend is falling. Fitted via linearized least squares.
