S1G and\nregular association responses also have different IE offsets, but the\nS1G path only patched resp_ie after the unsafe initialiser had already\nrun.\n\nDefer resp_ie, resp_ie_len, and status to after the link-iteration\nloop. Use a bool to remember whether the frame is S1G, then validate\nthe appropriate minimum length and set all three fields in a single\nif/else block. Funnel short-frame and SME-reject cleanup through a\nshared free_bss label for the abandon paths.","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/3bcaaaa4ad334053ceea2ea2f0623f22afe2e1ac","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/71be658246c903b9e96976a23c23800675896a1b","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/78ac450ad4624d6b2999cb4eeb28916767f81247","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/a57310600c1e2b9ada0f37c96e8f48aef47d3093","https://git.kernel.org/stable/c/b760113aeca2e9362d56bf9e9263373ffe6c8eb3"],"products":[],"source":"nvd","synced_at":"2026-10-19T22:56:02.509636177+00:00"},"epss":{"cve":"CVE-2026-93806","score":0.00254,"percentile":0.16726,"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).
