Machine-written summary

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

Linux kernel versions from 5.6 onward that include the ath11k wireless driver can read past the end of a buffer when processing a channel switch count event from firmware. The source gives few details on what an attacker needs to trigger this. Upgrade to 6.1.191, 6.6.157, 6.12.110, or 6.18.52 or later in the matching series.
