CVE-2021-47602 Open this link in a new tabHow to fix?
There is no fixed version for RHEL:7 kernel-bootwrapper.
NVD Description
Note: Versions mentioned in the description apply only to the upstream kernel-bootwrapper package and not the kernel-bootwrapper package as distributed by RHEL.
See How to fix? for RHEL:7 relevant fixed versions and status.
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
mac80211: track only QoS data frames for admission control
For admission control, obviously all of that only works for QoS data frames, otherwise we cannot even access the QoS field in the header.
Syzbot reported (see below) an uninitialized value here due to a status of a non-QoS nullfunc packet, which isn't even long enough to contain the QoS header.
Fix this to only do anything for QoS data packets.
