Description
A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's mt76 Wi-Fi driver. When operating in monitor mode with the fcsfail filter enabled, a remote attacker could send corrupted wireless frames. These frames, if reporting an invalid length, would trigger a kernel warning. If the system is configured to panic on warnings, this could lead to a system crash, resulting in a Denial of Service (DoS).
