Vulnerability from github – Published: 2026-05-06 12:30 – Updated: 2026-05-08 21:31

Details

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: rtw89: fix potential zero beacon interval in beacon tracking

During fuzz testing, it was discovered that bss_conf->beacon_int might be zero, which could result in a division by zero error in subsequent calculations. Set a default value of 100 TU if the interval is zero to ensure stability.

Severity ?

5.5 (Medium)
