Technical description

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

wifi: mt76: mt7915: fix oops on non-dbdc mt7986

mt7915_band_config() sets band_idx = 1 on the main phy for mt7986

with MT7975_ONE_ADIE or MT7976_ONE_ADIE.

Commit 0335c034e726 ("wifi: mt76: fix race condition related to

checking tx queue fill status") introduced a dereference of the

phys array indirectly indexed by band_idx via wcid->phy_idx in

mt76_wcid_cleanup(). This caused the following Oops on affected

mt7986 devices:
