CVE-2025-37794 (Low severity, published 2025-04-30)
CVSS score: 5.5 (CVSS:3.1/AV:L/AC:L/PR:L/UI:N/S:U/C:N/I:N/A:H)
CWE: CWE-476
Description: In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: mac80211: Purge vif txq in ieee80211_do_stop()

After ieee80211_do_stop() SKB from vif's txq could still be processed.
Indeed another concurrent vif schedule_and_wake_txq call could cause
those packets to be dequeued (see ieee80211_handle_wake_tx_queue())
without checking the sdata current state.

Because vif.drv_priv is now cleared in this function, this could lead to
driver crash.

For example in ath12k, ahvif is store in vif.drv_priv. Thus if
ath12k_mac_op_tx() is called after ieee80211_do_stop(), ahvif->ah can be
NULL, leading the ath12k_warn(ahvif->ah,...) call in this function to
trigger the NULL deref below.

To avoid that, empty vif's txq at ieee80211_do_stop() so no packet could
be dequeued after ieee80211_do_stop() (new packets cannot be queued
because SDATA_STATE_RUNNING is cleared at this point).
