Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: reject invalid 320 MHz CSA bandwidth
The HT/VHT channel definition validator can receive a 320 MHz
bandwidth indication from a received CSA frame on a non-6 GHz link.
It warns for this unsupported width but continues with an uninitialized
vht_operation.chan_width, which is then read by
ieee80211_chandef_vht_oper(). With panic_on_warn enabled, this lets a
received frame panic the kernel.
Reject the channel definition before entering the VHT operation
conversion. This preserves the existing CSA fallback while avoiding
both the warning and the uninitialized read.
