Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
wifi: iwlwifi: mld: cancel mlo_scan_start_wk<br />
<br />
mlo_scan_start_wk is not canceled on disconnection. In fact, it is not<br />
canceled anywhere except in the restart cleanup, where we don&#39;t really<br />
have to.<br />
<br />
This can cause an init-after-queue issue: if, for example, the work was<br />
queued and then drv_change_interface got executed.<br />
<br />
This can also cause use-after-free: if the work is executed after the<br />
vif is freed.
