CVE-2022-48787 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
There is no fixed version for Centos:8 kernel-devel.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-devel package and not the kernel-devel package as distributed by Centos.
See How to fix? for Centos:8 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
iwlwifi: fix use-after-free
If no firmware was present at all (or, presumably, all of the firmware files failed to parse), we end up unbinding by calling device_release_driver(), which calls remove(), which then in iwlwifi calls iwl_drv_stop(), freeing the 'drv' struct. However the new code I added will still erroneously access it after it was freed.
Set 'failure=false' in this case to avoid the access, all data was already freed anyway.
