Machine-written summary

Summary written by Claude Haiku from the source advisory. Not reviewed by a person.

The Linux kernel mt76 driver for MediaTek mt7915 Wi-Fi devices, from version 5.8 until the fixed stable releases, copies EFUSE data to a device-supplied address without a bounds check, allowing a 16-byte out-of-bounds write. Exploitation requires a malicious or malfunctioning device that reports an arbitrary address. Upgrade to 6.1.191, 6.6.160, 6.12.112, 6.18.50, or a later release in those series.
