      <title>CVE-2024-57898 — wifi: cfg80211: clear link ID from bitmap during link delete after clean up</title>
      <link>https://vulnerability.circl.lu/vuln/cve-2024-57898</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: cfg80211: clear link ID from bitmap during link delete after clean up&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Currently, during link deletion, the link ID is first removed from the
valid_links bitmap before performing any clean-up operations. However, some
functions require the link ID to remain in the valid_links bitmap. One
such example is cfg80211_cac_event(). The flow is -&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;nl80211_remove_link()
    cfg80211_remove_link()
        ieee80211_del_intf_link()
            ieee80211_vif_set_links()
                ieee80211_vif_update_links()
                    ieee80211_link_stop()
                        cfg80211_cac_event()&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;cfg80211_cac_event() requires link ID to be present but it is cleared
already in cfg80211_remove_link(). Ultimately, WARN_ON() is hit.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Therefore, clear the link ID from the bitmap only after completing the link
clean-up.&lt;/p&gt;</description>
