Improper conditions check for some Intel(R) PROSet/Wireless WiFi Software for Windows before version 23.110.0.5 may allow an unauthenticated user to potentially enable denial of service via adjacent access.

A vulnerability in the meeting-join functionality of Cisco Webex Meetings could have allowed an unauthenticated, network-proximate attacker to complete a meeting-join process in place of an intended targeted user, provided the requisite conditions were satisfied. Cisco has addressed this vulnerability in the Cisco Webex Meetings service, and no customer action is needed. This vulnerability existed due to client certificate validation issues. Prior to this vulnerability being addressed, an attacker could have exploited this vulnerability by monitoring local wireless or adjacent networks for client-join requests and attempting to interrupt and complete the meeting-join flow as another user who was currently joining a meeting. To successfully exploit the vulnerability, an attacker would need the capability to position themselves in a local wireless or adjacent network, to monitor and intercept the targeted network traffic flows, and to satisfy timing requirements in order to interrupt the meeting-join flow and exploit the vulnerability. A successful exploit could have allowed the attacker to join the meeting as another user. However, the Cisco Product Security Incident Response Team (PSIRT) is not aware of any malicious use of the vulnerability that is described in this advisory.

A vulnerability classified as critical was found in TOTOLINK T6 4.1.5cu.748. This vulnerability affects the function ckeckKeepAlive of the file wireless.so of the component MQTT Packet Handler. The manipulation leads to command injection. The attack can be initiated remotely. The exploit has been disclosed to the public and may be used.

An OS command injection vulnerability exists in various models of E-Series Linksys routers via the /tmUnblock.cgi and /hndUnblock.cgi endpoints over HTTP on port 8080. The vulnerability arises because the CGI scripts improperly process user input passed to the ttcp_ip parameter without sanitization, allowing unauthenticated attackers to inject shell commands. This flaw is actively exploited in the wild by the "TheMoon" worm to deploy a MIPS ELF payload, enabling arbitrary code execution on affected routers. Other Linksys products, including WAG, WAP, WES, WET, WRT-series routers and Wireless-N access points, may also be affected. No patch or remediation information is currently available.

Some Hikvision Wireless Access Point are vulnerable to authenticated remote command execution due to insufficient input validation. Attackers with valid credentials can exploit this flaw by sending crafted packets containing malicious commands to affected devices, leading to arbitrary command execution.

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: plfxlc: Remove erroneous assert in plfxlc_mac_release plfxlc_mac_release() asserts that mac->lock is held. This assertion is incorrect, because even if it was possible, it would not be the valid behaviour. The function is used when probe fails or after the device is disconnected. In both cases mac->lock can not be held as the driver is not working with the device at the moment. All functions that use mac->lock unlock it just after it was held. There is also no need to hold mac->lock for plfxlc_mac_release() itself, as mac data is not affected, except for mac->flags, which is modified atomically. This bug leads to the following warning: ================================================================ WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 127 at drivers/net/wireless/purelifi/plfxlc/mac.c:106 plfxlc_mac_release+0x7d/0xa0 Modules linked in: CPU: 0 PID: 127 Comm: kworker/0:2 Not tainted 6.1.124-syzkaller #0 Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine, BIOS Google 09/13/2024 Workqueue: usb_hub_wq hub_event RIP: 0010:plfxlc_mac_release+0x7d/0xa0 drivers/net/wireless/purelifi/plfxlc/mac.c:106 Call Trace: <TASK> probe+0x941/0xbd0 drivers/net/wireless/purelifi/plfxlc/usb.c:694 usb_probe_interface+0x5c0/0xaf0 drivers/usb/core/driver.c:396 really_probe+0x2ab/0xcb0 drivers/base/dd.c:639 __driver_probe_device+0x1a2/0x3d0 drivers/base/dd.c:785 driver_probe_device+0x50/0x420 drivers/base/dd.c:815 __device_attach_driver+0x2cf/0x510 drivers/base/dd.c:943 bus_for_each_drv+0x183/0x200 drivers/base/bus.c:429 __device_attach+0x359/0x570 drivers/base/dd.c:1015 bus_probe_device+0xba/0x1e0 drivers/base/bus.c:489 device_add+0xb48/0xfd0 drivers/base/core.c:3696 usb_set_configuration+0x19dd/0x2020 drivers/usb/core/message.c:2165 usb_generic_driver_probe+0x84/0x140 drivers/usb/core/generic.c:238 usb_probe_device+0x130/0x260 drivers/usb/core/driver.c:293 really_probe+0x2ab/0xcb0 drivers/base/dd.c:639 __driver_probe_device+0x1a2/0x3d0 drivers/base/dd.c:785 driver_probe_device+0x50/0x420 drivers/base/dd.c:815 __device_attach_driver+0x2cf/0x510 drivers/base/dd.c:943 bus_for_each_drv+0x183/0x200 drivers/base/bus.c:429 __device_attach+0x359/0x570 drivers/base/dd.c:1015 bus_probe_device+0xba/0x1e0 drivers/base/bus.c:489 device_add+0xb48/0xfd0 drivers/base/core.c:3696 usb_new_device+0xbdd/0x18f0 drivers/usb/core/hub.c:2620 hub_port_connect drivers/usb/core/hub.c:5477 [inline] hub_port_connect_change drivers/usb/core/hub.c:5617 [inline] port_event drivers/usb/core/hub.c:5773 [inline] hub_event+0x2efe/0x5730 drivers/usb/core/hub.c:5855 process_one_work+0x8a9/0x11d0 kernel/workqueue.c:2292 worker_thread+0xa47/0x1200 kernel/workqueue.c:2439 kthread+0x28d/0x320 kernel/kthread.c:376 ret_from_fork+0x1f/0x30 arch/x86/entry/entry_64.S:295 </TASK> ================================================================ Found by Linux Verification Center (linuxtesting.org) with Syzkaller.

A use-after-free vulnerability was identified and fixed in the Linux kernel's ath12k wireless driver. The flaw occurs in the function ath12k_mac_assign_vif_to_vdev(), where a pointer is freed and then subsequently accessed, leading to a read-after-free condition. This issue was resolved by reordering the pointer check to occur after the pointer is reassigned. The vulnerability has a high severity score of 7.8 CVSS v3.1 and affects local attackers with low complexity privileges. No known exploits are reported in the wild.

CVE-2024-56539 addresses a memcpy() field-spanning write warning in the mwifiex_config_scan() function of the Linux kernel's mwifiex wireless driver. The issue involved an improper use of a one-element array in a struct, which was replaced with a flexible-array member to prevent the warning. This fix resolves a potential reliability issue related to copying SSID data during Wi-Fi scanning.

CVE-2024-47713 is a medium severity vulnerability in the Linux kernel's mac80211 wireless subsystem. It involves improper handling of skb (socket buffer) reclamation in the ieee80211_do_stop() function, where interrupts are disabled during a critical operation, causing a kernel warning and potential instability. The flaw is fixed by implementing a two-phase skb reclamation process that defers work until interrupts are enabled. Multiple Linux kernel versions prior to fixed releases are affected.

In Nintendo Mario Kart 8 Deluxe before 3.0.3, the LAN/LDN local multiplayer implementation allows a remote attacker to exploit a stack-based buffer overflow upon deserialization of session information via a malformed browse-reply packet, aka KartLANPwn. The victim is not required to join a game session with an attacker. The victim must open the "Wireless Play" (or "LAN Play") menu from the game's title screen, and an attacker nearby (LDN) or on the same LAN network as the victim can send a crafted reply packet to the victim's console. This enables a remote attacker to obtain complete denial-of-service on the game's process, or potentially, remote code execution on the victim's console. The issue is caused by incorrect use of the Nintendo Pia library,

CVE-2024-46755 is a medium severity vulnerability in the Linux kernel's mwifiex Wi-Fi driver. The function mwifiex_get_priv_by_id() can return pointers to unused private structures that lack a valid wireless physical device (wiphy) association.
