Exploitation
No confirmed in-the-wild exploitation; assess based on exposure
Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.

Linux kernel是美国Linux基金会开源的一个操作系统内核。 Linux kernel存在安全漏洞，该漏洞源于ath12k_mac_dp_peer_cleanup()函数在清除ML peer ID时使用了错误的peer_id索引，导致越界clear_bit操作，破坏相邻内存并使后续ML peer ID分配失败。

Vulnerability Title
wifi: ath12k: fix out-of-bounds clear_bit in ath12k_mac_dp_peer_cleanup()
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: wifi: ath12k: fix out-of-bounds clear_bit in ath12k_mac_dp_peer_cleanup() ath12k_mac_dp_peer_cleanup() clears the ML peer ID slot on the free_ml_peer_id_map bitmap by indexing it with dp_peer->peer_id. That is wrong: dp_peer->peer_id for an MLO peer always carries the ATH12K_PEER_ML_ID_VALID bit (BIT(13)), so clear_bit() is invoked with index >= 0x2000, which is far outside the bitmap of ATH12K_MAX_MLO_PEERS (256) bits and corrupts memory adjacent to ah->free_ml_peer_id_map. The intended bitmap entry also never gets cleared, so subsequent ath12k_peer_ml_alloc() calls eventually run out of IDs. The ID without the VALID bit is what ath12k_peer_ml_alloc() returned and is stored in ahsta->ml_peer_id. Use that instead. While there, also reset ahsta->ml_peer_id to ATH12K_MLO_PEER_ID_INVALID so the bitmap and ahsta->ml_peer_id stay in sync.
