Published Aug 28, 2026

Overview

CVE-2026-80632 is a known-severity vulnerability. It was published on August 28, 2026.

Technical Description

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

wifi: mt76: mt7996: Fix NULL pointer dereference in mt7996_init_tx_queues()

When MT76_NPU and CONFIG_NET_MEDIATEK_SOC_WED are enabled and

mt76 detects properly the Airoha NPU SoC, mt7996_init_tx_queues() will

dereference a NULL WED pointer.

Fix the issue by always passing the WED pointer from mt7996_dma_init().
