From 2c6d6302d8adb46db2157673b9ee1b7497d2968c Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Tue, 4 Mar 2014 11:43:28 +0100 Subject: [PATCH] mac80211: fix potential use-after-free commit d2722f8b87fb172ff2f31d3a2816b31d58678d40 upstream. The bss struct might be freed in ieee80211_rx_bss_put(), so we shouldn't use it afterwards.
