Thanks! I didn't test it for I don't have a device. Very appreciated
if anyone could help with that.

I would volunteer, but it made me dig deep and not sure if there is a
problem to solve here.

brcmf_cfg80211_detach() calls wl_deinit_priv() -> brcmf_abort_scanning() ->
brcmf_notify_escan_complete() which does delete the timer.

What am I missing here?

Thanks four your detailed review. I did see the code and not sure if
brcmf_notify_escan_complete
would be triggered for sure. So in the first version I want to delete
the pending timer ahead of time.

Why requesting a CVE when you are not sure? Seems a bit hasty to put it
mildly.

I'm sure the issue exists because there's only cancler of timer but not woker.
As there's similar CVEs before like : https://github.com/V4bel/CVE-2022-41218,
I submit it as soon as I found it.

Ah, yes. The cancel_work_sync() can also be done in brcmf_notify_escan_complete().

Regards,
Arend
