"value": "In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nwifi: mac80211: avoid out-of-bounds read for empty PREQ elements\n\nieee80211_mesh_preq_size_ok() derives the location of the PREQ bottom\nfields before checking whether the element contains even the fixed\nheader. ieee80211_mesh_hwmp_preq_get_bottom() reads the flags byte to\naccount for the optional Address Extension field. Consequently, an\nempty PREQ element causes a one-byte read beyond its declared payload.\n\nMove the helper call after both size checks, so the bottom fields are\nonly accessed when they are present."
