Disclosure Date: July 12, 2024 (last updated July 13, 2024)
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
wifi: ath12k: fix kernel crash during resume
Currently during resume, QMI target memory is not properly handled, resulting
in kernel crash in case DMA remap is not supported:
BUG: Bad page state in process kworker/u16:54 pfn:36e80
page: refcount:1 mapcount:0 mapping:0000000000000000 index:0x0 pfn:0x36e80
page dumped because: nonzero _refcount
Call Trace:

dma_free_attrs
ath12k_qmi_free_target_mem_chunk
ath12k_qmi_msg_mem_request_cb
The reason is:
Once ath12k module is loaded, firmware sends memory request to host. In case
DMA remap not supported, ath12k refuses the first request due to failure in
allocating with large segment size:
ath12k_pci 0000:04:00.0: qmi firmware request memory request
ath12k_pci 0000:04:00.0: qmi mem seg type 1 size 7077888
