Description
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:<br />
<br />
wifi: mac80211: remove station if connection prep fails<br />
<br />
If connection preparation fails for MLO connections, then the<br />
interface is completely reset to non-MLD. In this case, we must<br />
not keep the station since it&#39;s related to the link of the vif<br />
being removed. Delete an existing station. Any "new_sta" is<br />
already being removed, so that doesn&#39;t need changes.<br />
<br />
This fixes a use-after-free/double-free in debugfs if that&#39;s<br />
enabled, because a vif going from MLD (and to MLD, but that&#39;s<br />
not relevant here) recreates its entire debugfs.
