ath11k driver

About this tag
The ath11k driver is a Linux kernel Wi-Fi driver for Qualcomm wireless chips, and discussions on WindowsForum.com focus on security vulnerabilities and bug fixes affecting this driver. Topics include CVE-2025-39732, which addresses an atomic context sleep issue, and CVE-2025-68380, which fixes HE MCS field swaps that can crash firmware. CVE-2022-49543 covers noisy MHI warnings during firmware recovery. Microsoft's Azure Linux distribution is named as a product that includes the vulnerable code, but users are advised that other Microsoft products may also be affected. The content emphasizes the importance of patching and artifact-level scanning for security teams.
