That is\nwrong: dp_peer->peer_id for an MLO peer always carries the\nATH12K_PEER_ML_ID_VALID bit (BIT(13)), so clear_bit() is invoked with\nindex >= 0x2000, which is far outside the bitmap of ATH12K_MAX_MLO_PEERS\n(256) bits and corrupts memory adjacent to ah->free_ml_peer_id_map. The\nintended bitmap entry also never gets cleared, so subsequent\nath12k_peer_ml_alloc() calls eventually run out of IDs.\n\nThe ID without the VALID bit is what ath12k_peer_ml_alloc() returned and\nis stored in ahsta->ml_peer_id. Use that instead.\n\nWhile there, also reset ahsta->ml_peer_id to ATH12K_MLO_PEER_ID_INVALID so\nthe bitmap and ahsta->ml_peer_id stay in sync.\n\nTested-on: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.1.1.c5-00302-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ-1.115823.3","cvss_v4":null,"cvss_v3":{"version":"3.1","vector":"CVSS:3.1/AV:A/AC:L/PR:N/UI:N/S:U/C:H/I:H/A:H","score":8.8},"cwes":[],"references":["https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/234b5cb81e6fcc1e3b31b13deff66130be55f36e","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/47abd2ca281531deee38a3b3770d885e270e9fc9"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:49:10.689564601+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-74554","score":0.0034,"percentile":0.27272,"date":"2026-10-25"},"kev":null,"osv":[],"attribution":["This product uses the NVD API but is not endorsed or certified by the NVD.","EPSS scores: FIRST Exploit Prediction Scoring System, https://www.first.org/epss","Known exploited vulnerabilities: CISA Known Exploited Vulnerabilities Catalog, https://www.cisa.gov/known-exploited-vulnerabilities-catalog","Package advisories: OSV (https://osv.dev), from the GitHub Advisory Database, PyPA, Go, RustSec and other ecosystem databases, under CC-BY 4.0 or CC0","CVE records: the CVE Program's CVE List (https://www.cve.org), under its terms of use (https://www.cve.org/Legal/TermsOfUse).
