{"id":"AZL-89595","summary":"CVE-2026-46307 affecting package kernel for versions less than 6.6.141.1-1","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nwifi: ath5k: do not access array OOB\n\nVincent reports:\n\u003e The ath5k driver seems to do an array-index-out-of-bounds access as\n\u003e shown by the UBSAN kernel message:\n\u003e UBSAN: array-index-out-of-bounds in drivers/net/wireless/ath/ath5k/base.c:1741:20\n\u003e index 4 is out of range for type 'ieee80211_tx_rate [4]'\n\u003e ...\n\u003e Call Trace:\n\u003e  \u003cTASK\u003e\n\u003e  dump_stack_lvl+0x5d/0x80\n\u003e  ubsan_epilogue+0x5/0x2b\n\u003e  __ubsan_handle_out_of_bounds.cold+0x46/0x4b\n\u003e  ath5k_tasklet_tx+0x4e0/0x560 [ath5k]\n\u003e  tasklet_action_common+0xb5/0x1c0\n\nIt is real. 'ts-\u003ets_final_idx' can be 3 on 5212, so:\n   info-\u003estatus.rates[ts-\u003ets_final_idx + 1].idx = -1;\nwith the array defined as:\n   struct ieee80211_tx_rate rates[IEEE80211_TX_MAX_RATES];\nwhile the size is:\n   #define IEEE80211_TX_MAX_RATES  4\nis indeed bogus.\n\nSet this 'idx = -1' sentinel only if the array index is less than the\narray size. As mac80211 will not look at rates beyond the size\n(IEEE80211_TX_MAX_RATES).\n\nNote: The effect of the OOB write is negligible. It just overwrites the\nnext member of info-\u003estatus, i.e. ack_signal.","modified":"2026-08-28T17:48:10.880121576Z","published":"2026-06-08T17:16:49Z","upstream":["CVE-2026-46307"],"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-46307"}],"affected":[{"package":{"name":"kernel","ecosystem":"Azure Linux:3","purl":"pkg:rpm/azure-linux/kernel"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"0"},{"fixed":"6.6.141.1-1"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://github.com/microsoft/AzureLinuxVulnerabilityData/blob/main/osv/AZL-89595.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
