ath6kl: fix use-after-free in aggr_reset_state()","description":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nwifi: ath6kl: fix use-after-free in aggr_reset_state()\n\nThe aggr_reset_state() function uses timer_delete() (non-synchronous)\nfor the aggregation timer before proceeding to delete TID state and\nbefore the structure is freed by callers like aggr_module_destroy().\n\nIf the timer callback (aggr_timeout) is executing when aggr_reset_state()\nis called, the callback will continue to access aggr_conn fields like\nrx_tid[] and stat[] which may be freed immediately after by\nkfree(aggr_info->aggr_conn) in aggr_module_destroy().\n\nAdditionally, the timer callback can re-arm itself via mod_timer() while\naggr_reset_state() is running, creating a more complex race condition.\n\nUse timer_delete_sync() instead to ensure any running timer callback\nhas completed before returning.","state":0,"publishedAt":"2026-08-10T12:00:16.718+00:00","modifiedAt":"2026-10-19T18:00:24.933+00:00","affected":[{"ecosystem":"Vendor
