Name of the Vulnerable Software and Affected Versions Linux kernel (affected versions not specified)
Description An issue exists in the mac802154 module where the bulk hardware teardown path removes entries using list del(). Because queue wake, stop, and disable paths traverse local->interfaces under RCU (Read-Copy-Update, a synchronization mechanism), an asynchronous transmit completion may follow a poisoned list node within the ieee802154 wake queue() function.
Recommendations At the moment, there is no information about a newer version that contains a fix for this vulnerability.
