In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: mt76: mt7915: disable rx napi when removing device
Unloading the mt7915e module with a MT7916 triggers multiples WARN in
__netif_napi_del_locked() and in page_pool_disable_direct_recycling()
because the driver does not disable the napi before destroying it.
This is troublesome since on MT7916 it is required to unload the module
and reinsert it with a different enable_6ghz parameter to change the
frequency. The system generally becomes unstable after reinserting the
module.
Fix it by disabling rx napi inside mt7915e itself, even through napi rx is
enabled in the mt76 generic code. Disabling it in the mt76 generic code
was previously attempted and reverted because napi was disabled too
late and rx handlers could access freed structures. Note that the tx
side is enabled and disabled by the mt76 generic code.
It is disabled in mt7915_stop_hardware() since, unlike
mt7915_unregister_device(), is it also called in the probe path if an
error happens after rx napi is enabled.
What the EG score is made of (scorer v4.0: the three questions the 0–10 score mixes, published apart · methodology)
- EG Severity
- Not assessed: no CVSS publishedA missing CVSS is not a severity of zero.
- EG Likelihood
- 0.2% within 30 daysSource: FIRST EPSS. FIRST's exploitation probability, not an EchelonGraph model.
- Confirmed exploitation
- None on record (CISA KEV, EG-KEV Tier 1)Reported apart from the likelihood: an observed fact, not a probability.

BOD 26-04 (CISA's remediation timeline, Table 1)14 days if the affected system is publicly exposed; Fix on system upgrade if it is not.
The score's inputs: In CISA KEV no (CISA's KEV catalog) · Automatable no (CISA's BOD 26-04 default) · Technical impact total (CISA's BOD 26-04 default). Where an input reads “CISA's BOD 26-04 default”, no one has published it for this CVE, and CISA's implementation guidance says: “If “Automatable” and “Technical Impact” information items about a CVE ID are not available and the CVE ID is not in the KEV Catalog, CISA will treat its values as “no” and “total,” respectively, until CISA or a third party provides metadata about the CVE ID. CISA will always provide the Vulnrichment data for a CVE ID listed in the KEV Catalog.” Whether your system is publicly exposed is yours to answer. BOD 26-04 binds US Federal Civilian Executive Branch agencies; for anyone else it is CISA's published timeline, a reference rather than an obligation. The directive · how EchelonGraph applies it
