"value": "AV:A - The UAF is hit in ieee80211_scan_rx() on the softirq RX path when processing over-the-air Probe Response frames during an active scan; an attacker on the same Wi‑Fi RF segment injects those frames.\nAC:L - The attacker controls the RX side by flooding Probe Responses and can retry across frequent automatic scans (observable via the victim’s Probe Requests), making this an attacker-influenced race rather than an uncontrollable condition.\nPR:N - Frame delivery and scan RX handling require no account or capability on the victim; background/connect/scheduled scans run from system WLAN stacks without attacker-held host privileges.\nUI:N - Phones and laptops routinely scan in the background with Wi‑Fi enabled, so Probe Responses are processed at scan completion without further victim action at attack time.\nS:U - The use-after-free corrupts mac80211/cfg80211 heap state inside the host kernel only and does not cross a VM, IOMMU, or sandbox boundary.\nC:H - After kfree(scan_req), ieee80211_scan_rx() still reads scan_req->flags via a dangling RCU reference; reclaiming that cfg80211_scan_request object enables arbitrary kernel disclosure.\nI:H - The same sprayable scan_req UAF in the concurrent RX path yields write and control-flow primitives characteristic of exploitable kernel use-after-frees.\nA:H - Concurrent use of the freed scan_req causes a KASAN-confirmed kernel oops/panic-class crash in the scan RX path, so availability impact is complete even without full code execution."
