[PATCH wireless] wifi: mac80211: check/clear fast rx for non-4addr sta VLAN changes

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



When moving a station out of a VLAN and deleting the VLAN afterwards, the
fast_rx entry still holds a pointer to the VLAN's netdev, which can cause
use-after-free bugs. Fix this by immediately calling ieee80211_check_fast_rx
after the VLAN change.
