CVE-2026-98699

A flaw was found in the Linux kernel's mac80211 wireless subsystem. A race condition occurs during mesh network path deletion when an active lookup reinserts an entry into the fast transmission cache after the cache has been cleared, resulting in a use-after-free condition where memory is accessed after being released. An attacker could exploit this flaw to cause a Denial of Service (DoS) by crashing the system or potentially achieve arbitrary code execution.
