Description

Various refcounting bugs in the multi-BSS handling in the mac80211 stack in the Linux kernel 5.1 through 5.19.x before 5.19.16 could be used by local attackers (able to inject WLAN frames) to trigger use-after-free conditions to potentially execute code.
A use-after-free flaw was found in bss_ref_get in the net/wireless/scan.c in the Linux kernel. This issue can lead to a denial of service or arbitrary code execution.
