{"id":"CVE-2026-80941","summary":"wifi: rtw88: Fix potential memory leak in rtw_txq_push_skb()","details":"In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:\n\nwifi: rtw88: Fix potential memory leak in rtw_txq_push_skb()\n\nThe skb passed to the rtw_hci_tx_write() is expected to be freed when\nthe function fails, but the error path in rtw_txq_push_skb() does not\nfree the skb before returning. This can lead to a memory leak in\nrtw_txq_push() where a dequeued skb is passed to rtw_txq_push_skb().","modified":"2026-09-13T03:46:53.747227431Z","published":"2026-09-11T19:42:13.854Z","database_specific":{"cna_assigner":"Linux","osv_generated_from":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/80xxx/CVE-2026-80941.json"},"references":[{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/51d8b35574721cf3fe744f46ebd9629916063fee"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/6e95852f904edbabf411793093fcfd6f6d49ef27"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/7364713f0931ee45fdf0bea27103b40ccc94979a"},{"type":"WEB","url":"https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/9f2948010764d708bda27369d09ce6f194abe8e3"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://github.com/CVEProject/cvelistV5/tree/main/cves/2026/80xxx/CVE-2026-80941.json"},{"type":"ADVISORY","url":"https://nvd.nist.gov/vuln/detail/CVE-2026-80941"},{"type":"PACKAGE","url":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git"}],"affected":[{"ranges":[{"type":"GIT","repo":"https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/stable/linux.git","events":[{"introduced":"aaab5d0e673749f82ff34e5f15ea8a689789a9ce"},{"fixed":"6e95852f904edbabf411793093fcfd6f6d49ef27"},{"fixed":"7364713f0931ee45fdf0bea27103b40ccc94979a"},{"fixed":"51d8b35574721cf3fe744f46ebd9629916063fee"},{"fixed":"9f2948010764d708bda27369d09ce6f194abe8e3"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-80941.json"}},{"package":{"name":"Kernel","ecosystem":"Linux"},"ranges":[{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"5.7.0"},{"fixed":"6.12.109"}]},{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"6.13.0"},{"fixed":"6.18.50"}]},{"type":"ECOSYSTEM","events":[{"introduced":"6.19.0"},{"fixed":"7.2.4"}]}],"database_specific":{"source":"https://storage.googleapis.com/cve-osv-conversion/osv-output/CVE-2026-80941.json"}}],"schema_version":"1.9.0"}
