AI-suggested
A fix is available that replaces the unsafe memcpy() call with memcpy_fromio() in the ath10k driver code. Users should apply the official kernel updates that include this patch. Since this is a kernel-level fix, upgrading to a patched kernel version resolves the issue.
Description
A vulnerability in the Linux kernel's ath10k wireless driver for WCN3990/SNOC devices causes a kernel crash and loss of firmware RAM dump data due to improper memory copying. The issue arises from using memcpy() on a memory region mapped with devm_memremap(MEMREMAP_WT), which is not normal-cacheable on arm64 architectures, leading to alignment faults. The fix replaces memcpy() with memcpy_fromio(), which safely handles such memory mappings.
