Recommended action
Check the vendor advisory and references for a fixed version. If immediate upgrade is impossible, restrict exposure and increase monitoring.
在 Linux 内核中，已解决以下漏洞： wifi: mac80211：禁止注入超出信道上下文（chanctx）宽度的帧 在监控接口上注入的帧可能携带一个 radiotap 字段，请求特定的带宽。mac80211 会将该带宽要求无条件地传递给驱动程序，即使它与实际运行带宽不一致。 如果请求的带宽过宽，将在 hwsim 中触发警告： WARN_ON(hwsim_get_chanwidth(bw) > hwsim_get_chanwidth(confbw)) 由于此类帧实际上无法发送，因此直接丢弃它们。

Vulnerability Title
wifi: mac80211: don't allow injecting frames wider than the chanctx
Source: CVE Program / CVE List V5
Vulnerability Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mac80211: don't allow injecting frames wider than the chanctx
Frames injected on a monitor interface can carry a radiotap
field requesting a bandwidth, which mac80211 passes down to
the driver regardless of the the actual operational bandwidth.
If the bandwidth requested is too wide, that triggers a warning
in hwsim:
WARN_ON(hwsim_get_chanwidth(bw) > hwsim_get_chanwidth(confbw))
Drop such frames entirely instead since they cannot be sent.
