Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux Kernel versions prior to v4.19.247

Description The issue concerns a potential out of bounds access with an invalid rs keyix in the rxstatus structure. This problem was introduced in version v3.15 and is fixed in version v4.19.247. The actual impact and attack plausibility have not yet been proven.

Recommendations For Linux Kernel versions prior to v4.19.247, update to version v4.19.247 or later to resolve the issue. As a temporary workaround, consider restricting access to the ath9k htc module to minimize the risk of exploitation.
